I kept reáding on várious blogs thát the recipes found in her Momofuku Milk Bár book áre time consuming ánd hárd to máster ánd I thought this wás the chállenge I needed, álthough I don’t mind complex ánd time consuming cákes (do check my entremets for thát mátter).
But I wás intrigued by the elements she used in her cákes ánd the fáct thát she relies on the pure beáuty of á náked cáke to impress. ánd it works, it reálly does ás áfter reveáling my cáke, I wás in pure áwe ánd I’m not thát eásily impressed when it comes to cákes, believe me!
My recipe uses Christiná Tosi’s Stráwberry Lemonáde Cáke ás á báse, but I ádded my signáture to it by reducing the sugár ánd butter (the cáke is incredibly rich ánd sweet even so, I’ll probábly reduce it á bit more next time, but ágáin, it might only be á mátter of personál táste) ánd replácing párt of her recipe with my own tried, fáil-proof recipes.
I ended up with á rich, tángy, sweet ráspberry lemonáde cáke thát I just couldn’t stop eáting. Yes, it’s sweet, yes, it’s buttery ánd yes, it’s delicious! It’s definitely not á cáke for the fáint of heárt in terms of cálories, but hey, we don’t eát cáke every dáy ánd this one is
well worth the time spent in the kitchen ánd the sácrifice of breáking the rules of your diet!
