Strawberries, yoghurt, basil - the perfect cake
May 24th, 2018 | sweets
At our home, our daughter is the backing-expert. I also bake well, but I prefer the hearty things. For our daughter baking means to relax, to come down, you could almost say: “to chill”. At the age of 14, she baked this fantastic strawberry yoghurt cream cake with basil for her brother’s birthday. Respect!
If you are hesitant about basil in a cake, you should definitely try this cake! It is an absolute explosion of flavors. Elaborate in the production, but a treat of the special kind. The recipe comes from the baking “bible”, which we gave our daughter years ago: “The Great Book of Baking” from Teubner publishing house.
Sounds complicated? Our 14-year-old has mastered it easily…
