Rose cake: a delightful sweet treat, perfect for holidays or special occasions. This simple and quick recipe will turn any meal into a feast of taste and aromas. Step by step, you will learn how to prepare a cake with a spectacular appearance and an unforgettable taste. Total preparation time: 2 hours and 30 minutes Working time: 1 hour Baking time: 50 minutes Number of servings: 12 Ingredients: - 500 ml warm milk - 4 large eggs - 50 g fresh yeast - 1 kg flour - 1 cup sugar (approximately 200 g) - Cocoa (to taste) - 100 g raisins (optional, but recommended) - Zest of 1 orange - 1 packet of vanilla sugar - 100 g melted butter (plus butter for greasing the pan) Step 1: Preparing the yeast Start by activating the yeast. In a small bowl, mix 50 ml of warm milk with a tablespoon of sugar and the fresh yeast. Add two tablespoons of flour and mix well. Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes, until the mixture becomes frothy. Step 2: Preparing the dough Sift the flour into a large bowl, adding the orange zest, vanilla sugar, and the remaining sugar. In the center of the flour, make a well and add the beaten eggs, the activated yeast, and the remaining warm milk. Mix the ingredients with a spatula or your hands until well combined. Then, add the melted butter and knead the dough for about 10-15 minutes, until it becomes elastic and smooth. Step 3: First rising Cover the dough with a damp towel and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until it doubles in volume. This step is essential for achieving a fluffy cake. Step 4: Shaping the cake After the dough has risen, roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle. Sprinkle cocoa, raisins, and sugar over the entire surface. Gently fold the edges and roll it tightly, forming a row of roses. Cut the roll into slices about 2 cm thick. Step 5: Second rising Place the slices in a greased pan, leaving a little space between them to expand. Cover the pan with a towel and let them rise for another 20 minutes. Step 6: Baking Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Before placing the cake in the oven, brush it with a beaten egg for a golden and shiny crust. Bake the cake for 50 minutes, or until it turns golden and passes the toothpick test (when you insert a toothpick in the center, it should come out clean). Serving suggestions and variations The rose cake is delicious served warm, alongside a cup of milk or tea. You can also add chopped nuts or chocolate for extra flavor. If you prefer more exotic flavors, try adding ground cardamom or cinnamon to the dough. This cake is not just a quick dessert but a true culinary masterpiece, perfect for impressing guests or treating yourself. Enjoy every slice, knowing that you have created something with your own hands, full of love and tradition!
