Description

This soft cake is a timeless classic, perfect to accompany a coffee or a tea. I often prepare it for birthdays or impromptu afternoon snacks. Its light texture and its simple taste make it a dessert appreciated by all. The recipe is very easy to make with the Thermomix®, which makes it ideal for beginners in pastry. One can decorate it with apples, cocoa or a chocolate ganache to vary the pleasures. A true delight to share with family or friends!
