Hello my dear friends who love cooking, it is a pleasure to be here sharing my first post in this beautiful and varied gastronomic community and I want to share with you a delicious recipe to sweeten our lives, it is a detail that I wanted to share with my family and for me the beauty of cooking is that it allows you to combine with what we have at hand and this recipe is a delicious passion fruit cake, before as an entrepreneur I made what we know in Venezuela as tetas de parchita, passion fruit, and I saw that I could make a filling for a cake with what I made and for that reason today I present it to you along with the ingredients.
| Ingredientes: | Ingredients: |
|---|---|
| 250 gramos de harina de trigo | 250 grams of wheat flour |
| 250 gramos de azúcar | 250 grams of sugar |
| 125 gramos de mantequilla | 125 grams of butter |
| 2 maracuyás | 2 maracuyas |
| 5 gramos de levadura | 5 grams of yeast |
| 2 huevos | 2 eggs |
| Clavos de olor | Cloves |
| 250 mililitros de agua | 250 milliliters of water |
For the elaboration of this cake you could see that the ingredients are very common to find and so we got down to work. The first thing I did was to take the two passion fruits and chop them in two to put the pulp in a pot, but I also cut the previously washed shells into small pieces and put them together with the pulp in order to obtain the sweetness of my cake, then I put it in the kitchen with water until it boiled.
When removing the passion fruit from the kitchen what I did was to separate in a coffee cup some of the juice, which I will later use to add it to the flour of my cake. With the rest I took it to the blender after it cooled to obtain what would be part of the sweet for my cake and this we must strain it.
Now, after blending, I took it back to the stove over low heat where I added sugar and beat this mixture until I reached the ideal point according to my palate and had it ready to put it in my cake as a filling and also to put a layer on top. To achieve a better consistency I added a little wheat flour and water that I had diluted in a glass.
My friends, having this part ready, I proceeded to elaborate the cake as such, where in a bowl I added the butter and sugar and began to beat them until both came together, and in my case it cost a little bit, since the sugar was not very refined, but after pulling out the arm I reached the goal hehe.
At this point I added the two eggs to my mixture to proceed to mix it and when I achieved it I added the flour that in my case I had all the use and for that reason I added the yeast at the moment, and this is why I like cooking because with what we have at hand we can make something tasty.
When I got here where I am mixing the sugar, butter, flour, I proceeded to add what for me is the reason for my cake, remember the parchita juice that I separated in a coffee cup? I poured it into my mixture and continued beating it until I had it ready to put it in the mold.
Once the mold is greased with butter and a little flour, we place our mixture in it and in this way take it to the oven where previously preheated we leave it for about 20 minutes more or less and where the ideal is to be aware of it so that it will not burn.
After my passion fruit cake was ready, and so that its flavor would be more concentrated, I proceeded to cut the cake horizontally and when I separated it I put my passion fruit candy on it and immediately I put the other part of the cake in a sandwich type and on top I finished covering it with the candy as you can see in the photos.
Personally, in order for the mixture to adhere better, I put it in the refrigerator for a few hours and then share it with my family. If you want to make this part at home, you can eat it at the moment and it is still tasty.
Well, my friends, a simple recipe and because of the taste I can only tell you that there is not a little piece left hehehe, my family disappeared, you can judge for yourselves. I hope you liked it and dare to make it at home for the ones you love.
