Express cake

I come to you with the recipe of my favorite cake! I would be very happy if it helps someone! I've been baking it every year for many years now. Easter cakes are fragrant, tasty, slightly moist and crumbly. They eat very quickly. And no matter how much you bake, it's never enough. The recipe is very simple, even a child can handle it!

How to cook Express cake

In the evening, in a bowl (any, most importantly not aluminum, it oxidizes), without stirring, place the yeast in pieces, a glass of warm milk, butter (in pieces) at room temperature, eggs, a glass of sugar, raisins, pre-pour over boiling water and let drain water. Cover with a towel and leave overnight. The photo was taken in the morning.

Express cake - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

While butter provides the best flavor and texture, you can substitute with margarine in equal amounts. Be sure to use a margarine with a high fat content (at least 70%) for best results.
Stored in an airtight container at room temperature, the Express Cake should stay fresh for 3-4 days. To prolong its shelf life, refrigerate it, which can keep it fresh for up to a week.
Freezing the unbaked batter is not recommended, as the yeast activity will be affected. It's best to bake the cakes and then freeze them after cooling.
To make this vegetarian, ensure your ingredients (like sugar) are vegetarian-friendly. To make it vegan, substitute the butter with a vegan butter alternative, the eggs with a commercial egg replacer according to package directions, and the milk with a plant-based milk like almond or soy milk.
While the overnight rise is ideal for developing flavor, you can try a shorter rise time in a warm place. Aim for at least 2-3 hours, or until the dough has doubled in size.
Yes, you can freeze the baked cakes! Make sure they are completely cooled. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and then in foil, or place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can be stored for up to 2-3 months. Thaw completely at room temperature before decorating or serving.
You can substitute raisins with other dried fruits like dried cranberries, chopped dried apricots, or even chocolate chips. Adjust the amount to your preference.
Yes, you can reduce the sugar slightly, but keep in mind that sugar contributes to the cake's moisture and structure. Start by reducing it by 1/4 cup and see how you like the result.
