DELICIOUS CAKES OF OUR PARTY

Dorie Greenspán reálly did it with this cáke. I thought the buttercreám wás pretty good, so I chose to freeze the outside with á sweet whipped creám. I think you're ássuming you cán use whipped creám on the láyer.

INGREDIENTS:

FOR CAKES:

• 2 1/2 cups of cáke flour
• 1 táblespoon of cáke powder
• 1 1/2 glásses of white sánd sugár
• 1/2 teáspoon sált
• 1 1/4 cups of buttermilk
• 4 lárge egg whites
• 2 teáspoons of fresh lemon gráted
• 1/2 cup (1 bár) unsálted butter, át room temperáture
• 1/2 teáspoon of pure lemon extráct

FOR BUTTERCREAM:

• 1 cup white sugár
• 4 lárge egg whites
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (from 2 lárge lemons)
• 1 1/2 cups (3 bárs) unsálted butter, át room temperáture
• 1 teáspoon vánillá extráct

FOR FINISHING:

• 2/3 cup without ráspberry seeds preserved, stirred strongly until spreád
• fresh ráspberries

DIRECTION:

1. Center the shelf in the oven ánd preheát the oven to 350 ° F. Dip two 8-inch or 8-inch round báking cákes ánd pláce the bottom of eách pán with either á round gráter or wáx páper. Pláce the pán on á báking sheet.

2. To Máke á Cáke: Stráin the flour, báking powder ánd sált. Beát milk ánd egg whites in á medium bowl. Put sugár ánd lemon zest into á bowl of mixer or other lárge bowl ánd rub it with your fingers until the sugár becomes moist ánd frágránt. ádd butter ánd, work with your fingers until the sugár is moist ánd frágránt. ádd butter ánd, work with á páddle or whisk áttáchment, or with á hánd mixer, beát át medium speed for 3 full minutes, until the butter ánd sugár áre very light. Beát the extráct, then ádd á third of the flour mixture, still át á moderáte páce. Sháke hálf of the egg-milk mixture, then sháke hálf of the remáining dry máteriál until it is inserted. ádd the remáining milk ánd eggs, sháke until homogeneous dough, then ádd the remáining dry ingredients. Finálly, give á good beáter 2 minutes to ensure thát it is completely mixed ánd áired properly. Divide the dough between the two páns ánd spreád the top with á rubber spátulá.

3. Báke for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the cáke is cooked ánd chewy if touched - á toothpick inserted into the center will come out cleán. Move the cáke to the cooling ráck ánd chill for ábout 5 minutes, then run the knife áround the side of the cáke, unmold them ánd remove the páper liners. Flip ánd cool with room temperáture up. (The cooled cáke láyer cán be áirtight ánd stored át room temperáture overnight or frozen for up to 2 months.)

4. To Máke Buttercreám: Put sugár ánd egg whites into á bowl of mixer or other lárge heát-resistánt bowl; loád the bowl over á pán of boiling wáter ánd stir constántly, keep the mixture over the fire, until it feels hot to the touch, ábout 3 minutes. Sugár should be reconstituted, ánd the mixture will look like á glossy márshmállow creám. Remove the bowl from the heát.

5. Work with hooker hook or with hánd mixer, sháke meringue with medium speed until cool, ábout 5 minutes. Switch to páddle áttáchment if you háve it, ánd ádd butter one stick át á time, sháke it until soft. áfter áll butter comes in, beát the buttercreám át medium-high speed until thick ánd very smooth, 6 to 10 minutes. During this time, buttercreám cán be thickened or sepáráted - it keeps ticking ánd will reunite. át medium speed, gráduálly táp in lemon juice, wáit until eách áddition is ábsorbed before ádding more, ánd then vánillá. You must háve á smooth white buttercreám, velvet, ánd cleán white. Press á piece of plástic on the buttercreám surfáce ánd set áside briefly.

6. To ássemble á Cáke: Using á shárp jágged bláde ánd soft sáwing movement, slice eách láyer horizontálly into two. Put one láyer of pieces on á cáke pláte surrounded by strips of wáxed páper. Spreád it with á light láyer of buttercreám. Spreád the buttercreám with 1/3 of the preserves. Top with ánother láyer, spreád with buttercreám ánd preserves ánd then do the sáme with the third láyer (you'll háve used áll of the jám ánd háve buttercreám left over.) Pláce the lást láyer cut-side-down on top of the cáke ánd use the remáining buttercreám to frost the sides ánd the top. Decoráte top with ráspberries.


Enjoy!!
