Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 5 Eggs
  • 1½ cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 packet Vanilla Sugar (*See Notes for substitute)
  • ½ cup Oil
  • 1 cup Egg liqueur
  • 2½ cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder (or baking soda)
  • Egg liqueur
  • Powdered Sugar (to garnish)

Instruction

  • Mix and beat the eggs with the powdered sugar, vanilla sugar to a creamy pale yellow batter.
  • In a separate small bowl mix the oil with the liqueur well and add it then to the sugar egg mix and combine.
  • Now add to the batter the flour and baking powder and mix it all well to a smooth batter.
  • Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit/ 180° Celsius.
  • Grease your cake mold and fill in the batter. The greasing of the form prevents the cake to stick.
  • Bake your cake at 350° Fahrenheit/ 180° Celsius for 45 minutes.
  • Take out the cake and while it's still hot pour in more egg liqueur (about 1/2-1 cup) into the cake so that the cake soaks in the alcohol. Let it stand for 1 hour so that the liqueur may sink and disperse well into the cake.
  • Before serving turn the cake and spread powdered sugar to garnish on top.
