Cake and jam: the enveloping taste of grandmothers
Ingredients:
- 200 g of soft butter
- 200 g of sugar
- 4 eggs
- 300 g of flour
- 1 sachet of baking powder
- 200 ml of milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 200 g of Dodaro Selection artisanal fig jam
Procedure:
Preparation of the Ingredients: Preheat the oven to 180°C and butter a 24 cm round baking pan. Sift the flour with the baking powder and set aside.
Butter and Sugar Cream: In a large bowl, beat the soft butter with the sugar until you obtain a light and fluffy cream. Add the eggs one at a time, making sure each egg is incorporated well before adding another.
Adding the Flour and Milk: Gradually, add the sifted flour with the yeast to the butter and egg mixture. Mix gently. Add the milk and vanilla, continuing to mix until you obtain a smooth mixture.
Composition of the Cake: Pour half the mixture into the prepared pan. Evenly distribute a layer of Dodaro Selection artisanal fig jam on the surface. Cover with the remaining dough.
Cooking: Bake the cake in the preheated oven for about 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Be sure to check the cooking after the first 30 minutes and cover with foil if the surface browns too quickly.
Cooling and Serving: Once cooked, let the cake cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into slices and serve.
