Necessary ingredients For the loaf: - 3 large eggs - 1 cup (200 ml) of sugar - 70 ml of milk - 70 ml of yogurt - 70 ml of oil - 2 cups of flour - 1 packet of baking powder - 1 essence of orange (or another preferred flavor) For the cream: - 3 cups (750 ml) of milk - 3 heaping tablespoons of flour - 1 tablespoon of cornstarch - 1 egg - 4 tablespoons of sugar - 1 packet of vanilla sugar - 1 tablespoon of butter For decoration: - Powdered sugar (optional) - Coconut or pistachio for a special look (optional) Step by step: Preparing the cake 1. Preparing the cream: In a saucepan, whisk all the ingredients for the cream: milk, egg, sugar, flour, and cornstarch. It is important to stir constantly to avoid lumps. - Useful tips: Use a metal whisk or a hand mixer to achieve a smooth composition. 2. Heating the cream: Place the saucepan over medium heat, stirring continuously. When the cream begins to thicken and reaches the consistency of pudding, remove it from the heat. - Trick: If the cream seems too thick, feel free to add a little milk to thin it out. 3. Adding flavors: Add the butter and vanilla essence, then mix well for 3 minutes until the cream becomes smooth and shiny. Allow to cool. 4. Preparing the loaf: In a large bowl, mix the eggs with the sugar until you obtain a frothy and light-colored composition. Then, add the oil, milk, and yogurt, stirring gently. - Suggestion: Use natural yogurt for a richer taste. 5. The dry ingredients: Sift the flour, baking powder, and orange essence over the wet composition and mix well until homogenized. Avoid overmixing to prevent a dense loaf. 6. Baking the loaf: Pour the composition into a baking pan lined with parchment paper (a 28 cm round pan is ideal). Gently tap the pan on the table to remove air bubbles, then place it in the preheated oven at 190°C. Bake for 20-25 minutes. - Toothpick test: When you insert a toothpick through the center of the loaf and it comes out clean, it is ready! 7. Assembling the cake: After baking, turn the loaf onto a clean towel and let it cool completely. Cut it into two layers, then spread the cream over the first layer, placing the second on top. - Decoration: Sprinkle powdered sugar on top, and if desired, add coconut or pistachio for an attractive look. 8. Serving: Let the cake chill in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours before serving. It is delicious warm, but chilled it becomes a true treat!
