12 Servings

Ingredients

3 cups of Flour

9 Eggs

1 ½ cup of Sugar

2 teaspoons of Baking powder

Grated lemon zest

1 tablespoon of Vanilla extract

1 pinch of Salt

2 cups of Prunes

2 cups of Raisins

2 cups of Rum

2 cups of Muscatel

2 cups of Brandy

2 cups of Water

2 Cinnamon sticks

10 Cloves

Preparation

Step 1 : Start by preheating the oven to 180°C.

Step 2 : To prepare the sponge cake, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then add the egg yolks and sugar.

Step 3 : Next, incorporate the flour, baking powder, salt, lemon zest, and vanilla.

Step 4 : Pour the mixture into a baking dish and bake for 45 minutes.

Step 5 : While the cake is baking, prepare the syrup by marinating the raisins and prunes in rum, muscatel, and brandy.

Step 6 : Then, cook water with cinnamon, sugar, lemon, and cloves until it forms a not-too-thick syrup.

Step 7 : Pour this syrup over the raisin and prune mixture and set aside.

Step 8 : Once the cake is ready and unmolded, cut it into squares, soak with the syrup, and refrigerate for 3 hours.

Step 9 : When serving, place the cake with prunes, raisins, and syrup in glasses.

Step 10 : For better moisture, it is recommended to prick the cake before adding the syrup, ensuring that egg whites are free of fat when beaten.

Step 11 : If brandy is unavailable, coconut liqueur can be used as an alternative.
