Ingredients

12 pieces
  • 200 gram butter (at room temperature)
  • 250 gram sugar
  • 3 eggs (size M)
  • 375 ml whole milk
  • 1 lemon (juice)
  • 200 gram cake flour
  • 200 gram flour
  • 7 gram baking powder
  • 7 gram baking soda
  • pinch of salt
  • 500 ml whipping cream
  • 50 gram whipping cream stabilizer (optional)
  • 150 gram icing sugar
  • 250 gram mascarpone
  • 400 gram strawberries (sliced)
  • flowers for decoration (optional.)

Equipment

  • Hand mixer or stand mixer
  • Parchment paper
  • Spring-from pan - 18 cm/7 inch

INSTRUCTIONS (how to make this recipe):

  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius / 355 Fahrenheit with top and bottom heat.
  • Beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy (about 5 minutes). Then add the eggs, milk and lemon juice, mixing for a further 2 minutes.
  • In a bowl, mix the flour, cake flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the mixture and beat for about 5 minutes.
  • Line a spring-form tin with parchment paper and grease the sides. Pour the mixture into the tin.
  • Bake the cake for about 50 minutes. Leave the cake to cool for about 2 hours, then cut it horizontally into two slices.
  • To make the cream, whip the cream with the stabilizer and icing sugar until stiff. Beat the mascarpone in a separate bowl, then fold it into the whipped cream.
  • Spread a generous layer of cream over one slice of cake and garnish with strawberries. Place the second slice of cake on top, spreading a layer of cream over the top and garnishing with strawberries and flowers as desired. Enjoy!
