Today after work I had a big appetite for some cake. So I decided to go to Hofer and buy all the Ingredients I need for a Cake.
Since I know the Gugelhupf is one of the easier cakes I decided to bake this one and I found the recipe on the website of an well known austrian baking supplier. It is also the producer of the vanillin sugar and the baking powder that I used to bake in this recipe. Since this is my first "Gugelhupf" Cake I am pretty happy about the results. At least I can say it looks pretty good and I am pretty positive that it also tastes great, although I havn't tried it yet since it is still hot. But today evening I will give it a first try.

Baking Time 45 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius.
Ingredients:
150 grams Butter
50 grams powder sugar
1 Pck. Vanillin sugar
a bit of salt
3 Eggs
100 grams sugar
300 grams glattes flour
1 Pck. baking powder
⅛ l milk
The Preparation is not so difficult. Mix the butter with the sugar, salt and vanillin sugar. seperate the eggwhite with the yolk and create an egg cream from the egg white. Then mixx everything together with the other ingredients. Put the dough in the form but first put some butter around the form so the cake is easier to undo and bake it for 45 minutes at 180 degrees celsius, and that's it. Now I hope it tastes well, but it is still hot so I have to wait a bit for tasting the result.
