The cake turns out juicy and melts in your mouth. If prepared in advance, it will become denser by serving time. It can be stored for a week in a tightly sealed container.
Ingredients
- Raisins - 10.6 oz
- Cognac - 3 fl oz
- Butter - 4.4 oz
- Brown Sugar - 6.2 oz
- Black Tea Bags with Lemon - 5 fl oz
- Grated Ginger Root - ½ teaspoon
- Farm fresh eggs - 2 pieces
- Wheat Flour - 8.8 oz
- Dr. Oetker baking powder - 0.4 oz
Step by Step guide
Step 1
Soak the raisins in hot freshly brewed bergamot tea (150 ml) and add 100 ml of cognac. Let it cool. Cover the container and leave it for 6 hours or overnight.
Step 2
Beat the softened butter with sugar and ginger until fluffy. Whisk the eggs. Gradually add the eggs to the butter, adding a spoonful of sifted flour at a time to prevent the batter from separating.
Step 3
Add the remaining flour, baking powder, and soaked raisins. Mix very thoroughly until smooth, ensuring the raisins are evenly distributed.
Step 4
Transfer the batter to a baking pan and smooth the top. Bake in a preheated oven at 320°F for 1 hour 15–25 minutes.
Step 5
Check the cake's readiness with a wooden stick. If it's done, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan.
