Easy Birthday Cake Recipe
4 tablespoons flour, 100 g
1.5 cups granulated sugar, 350 gr
700 ml milk, 2+4/5 cups
3 egg yolks
10 g vanilla powder, use 1 teaspoon vanilla extract instead of powder
1 pinch of salt
2 tablespoons butter
1 heaped tablespoon cocoa powder
24 pieces lady fingers
500 g strawberries, helved into four
1 vanilla sponge cake, 21 cm or 8 in
To decorate
100 g strawberries, halved
• To make the custard add the flour, granulated sugar, and salt to a saucepan on medium heat.
• While whisking add the milk until you have a thick, smooth mixture.
• Meanwhile, to temper the egg yolks, take some spoons from the hot mixture and add it to the beaten egg yolks.
• When the eggs have been tempered, add back into in the saucepan.
• After adding the eggs, lower the heat and cook for a further 1-2 minutes after you see the first bubbles on the surface and let the custard come to a boil.
• Then add the butter and vanillin and turn off the heat. Whisk until cool down.
• Separate two out of three of the custard in a bowl and add cocoa and continue whisking while cooling. You can also keep it in the fridge for a while if you have time.
• Place one layer of the cake onto a serving platter or cake stand. Spread the cocoa custard and strawberries on the cake.
• Spread plain cream on the top layer and close it with the cream on the bottom.
• Place the lady fingers vertically standing them up with the pretty sugar-coated side facing out and around the cakes and tie them with a thick ribbon.
• Spread the remaining custard evenly on the top layer of the cake. Decorate with strawberries and refrigerate your cake to rest for half an hour if you have time.
• Your easy and delicious strawberry cake is ready to eat.
• Enjoy!
