Yogurt and fruit cake is a perfect choice for any occasion - from a family gathering to a get-together with friends. This recipe is not only simple but also versatile, allowing you to use your favorite fruits. Here's how to make it. Necessary ingredients: *For the base:* - 3 eggs - 100 grams powdered sugar - 100 grams flour - 1 teaspoon baking powder - 1 tablespoon cocoa powder *For the cream:* - 200 ml whipped cream - 250 grams yogurt (or fresh cheese, or sour cream) - 150 grams powdered sugar - 50 grams coconut - 200 ml milk - 3 packets gelatin *For the topping:* - Fruits of your choice (apples, mango, strawberries, etc.) - Grated dark chocolate for decoration (optional) - Rum essence (optional) Step by step: Preparing the bases 1. Separate the eggs: Start by separating the egg whites from the yolks. It's important to have clean, grease-free bowls so that the egg whites whip well. 2. Whip the egg whites: Use a mixer to beat the egg whites with the powdered sugar until you achieve a firm, glossy foam. This step is crucial for giving the bases a fluffy texture. 3. Whip the yolks: In another bowl, beat the yolks with a pinch of salt until creamy and lighter in color. This will help enhance the flavor and color of the batter. 4. Combine the ingredients: Gradually add the whipped yolks over the egg whites, gently folding with a spatula to avoid losing air in the mixture. 5. Add the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and cocoa powder. Gradually add this mixture to the egg mixture, continuing to fold gently. 6. Prepare the baking pan: Grease a baking pan with oil or butter, or use a baking sheet. Pour the mixture into the pan and level the surface with a spatula. 7. Bake the base: Preheat the oven to 180°C and bake the base for 25 minutes or until golden brown and passes the toothpick test. Preparing the cream 1. Boil the milk with coconut: In a saucepan, add 200 ml of milk and coconut. Bring the mixture to a boil over low heat, stirring constantly. 2. Prepare the gelatin: In a small bowl, dissolve the gelatin in warm water, using a double boiler to ensure it dissolves completely. 3. Combine the cream: Once the milk with coconut has boiled, remove it from the heat and add the dissolved gelatin. Allow it to cool. 4. Whip the cream: In a large bowl, whip the cream until firm. Add the yogurt (or fresh cheese/sour cream) and powdered sugar, mixing well. 5. Incorporate the cooled milk: When the milk with coconut is cool, add it tablespoon by tablespoon to the whipped cream, gently mixing until smooth. 6. Chill: Place the cream in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set. Assembling the cake 1. Soak the base: Once the base has cooled, you can soak it with a syrup made from water and sugar or with fruit juice for added flavor. 2. Add the cream: Spread a layer of cream over the soaked base, followed by a layer of diced fruits. You can use apples, mango, or any other fruits you prefer. 3. Cream and fruits: Repeat the process, adding another layer of cream and then another layer of fruits. 4. Finish with chocolate: If desired, you can add a topping of grated chocolate on top for an elegant look and delicious taste. Why is this cake special? This yogurt and fruit cake is not just a delicious dessert, but also a healthier option due to the yogurt and fresh fruits. It is a dessert that can be adapted according to the season and your preferences, making it perfect for any occasion. Useful tips: - For an intense flavor: You can add a few drops of rum essence to the fruit mixture, as I did with apples and mango. - Alternative fruits: Experiment with different combinations of fruits, such as strawberries, kiwi, or peaches. - Cream variations: Instead of yogurt, you can use mascarpone for a richer and more decadent cream. Frequently asked questions: 1. Can I use other types of milk? Yes, you can substitute cow's milk with almond or coconut milk for a vegan option. 2. How can I store the cake? It is recommended to keep it in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3-4 days. 3. Can I freeze the cake? It is better not to freeze the assembled cake, but you can freeze the base and cream separately. Serving: This cake is perfect served alongside a cup of tea or coffee. Add a touch of elegance with a slice of lemon or a fresh mint leaf on top. Enjoy making this yogurt and fruit cake, bringing a smile to the faces of your loved ones. It is a dessert that combines textures and flavors, offering an unforgettable culinary experience. Enjoy!
