Cake with coffee or tea – A simple and delicious dessert Preparation time: 15 minutes Baking time: 25-30 minutes Total time: 45 minutes Number of servings: 8 servings This cake is perfect to enjoy alongside a cup of coffee or tea. With a soft texture and delicious taste, it is a quick and easy dessert to make, ideal for moments when you want to impress without spending too much time in the kitchen. Here’s how you can prepare it! Ingredients: - 200 g flour - 150 g sugar - 100 g butter, at room temperature - 2 large eggs - 1 teaspoon baking powder - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract - 50 ml milk - A pinch of salt - Powdered sugar for decoration (optional) Step by step: 1. Preparing the oven and the baking tray: Start by preheating the oven to 180°C (350°F). Make sure you have a baking tray (about 20x20 cm) that you grease well with butter and dust with flour. This will help the cake not stick and bake evenly. 2. Mixing the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. This step is essential to ensure a uniform texture for your cake. Use a spatula or a whisk to mix them well. 3. Beating the butter and sugar: In another bowl, add the soft butter and sugar. Use an electric mixer or a whisk to beat them together for about 3-4 minutes, until the mixture becomes creamy and light in color. This step is important to incorporate air and achieve a fluffy cake. 4. Adding the eggs and vanilla: Continue by adding the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined. 5. Combining the ingredients: Start incorporating the flour mixture into the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. It is important to start and end with the dry ingredients, gently mixing with a spatula to avoid developing the gluten in the flour, which could make the cake denser. 6. Baking: Pour the mixture into the prepared tray and level the surface with a spatula. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The aroma will fill your kitchen and make you eager to enjoy it. 7. Cooling and serving: After the cake is baked, let it cool in the tray for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a cooling rack. Once it has completely cooled, you can dust it with powdered sugar for an elegant look. Serving suggestions: This cake pairs perfectly with fresh fruits, such as strawberries or raspberries, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. You can experiment by adding chopped nuts or chocolate for a personal twist. Possible variations: You can transform this simple recipe into a decadent dessert by adding a few tablespoons of cocoa to make a chocolate cake or you can add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg for a more complex flavor. Enjoy a delicious cake, perfect for any occasion, that will impress both family and friends. This quick dessert is ideal for serving at a relaxed gathering or simply to indulge your taste buds.
