To prepare this delicious recipe, start by gathering all the necessary ingredients: mineral water, sugar, sunflower seeds, oil, jam, rum essence, flour, baking powder, and cocoa. Make sure you have a baking tray and parchment paper on hand to achieve a perfect result. In a large bowl, pour the mineral water and add the sugar. Using a spatula or a wooden spoon, mix well until the sugar is completely dissolved. This step is essential for obtaining a uniform and tasty mixture. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius, so it is ready to receive your delight. In a tray, place the sunflower seeds and roast them in the oven for 3-4 minutes, until they become lightly browned. This step will enhance the flavor of the seeds and add a special taste to your dish. Once the seeds are ready, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a moment, then add them to the bowl with water and sugar. Continue by adding the oil, fruit jam, and rum essence to the mixture. Mix all the ingredients well, ensuring they combine perfectly. Now it's time to add the dry ingredients. Sift the flour, baking powder, and cocoa over the wet mixture. Use a spatula or a mixer on low speed to homogenize the composition, being careful not to leave lumps. Once you have obtained a uniform mixture, pour the mixture into a tray lined with parchment paper, leveling it with the help of a spatula. Ensure the dough is evenly distributed in the tray for even baking. Place the tray in the preheated oven and let it bake for about 35-40 minutes. After this interval, use a toothpick to check if the cake is baked. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is ready. Once the cake has cooled, remove it from the tray and cut it into suitable portions. You can serve it plain or with a chocolate glaze for an extra touch of flavor. This recipe is perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a party, a gathering with friends, or simply to enjoy a delicious dessert with loved ones. Enjoy your meal!
