why i choose Ree's Pound Cake? Simply because of the Sprite, i wonder how the pound cake taste like with soda drink. Well, the outcome wasn't satisfied me, the golden crust wasn't form on my cake. But i guess the fault wasn't due to the ingredient, was the setting that i set up on my new bought OVEN (yes, i bought an oven finally!)
anyway, i will definitely re-bake in future, to get the shinny golden crust like Ree bake!
Ingredient:
- 100g margarine
- 100g soft brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 lemon juice with zest (replace butter and lemon flavoring)
- 140g all purpose flour
- 100ml Sprite
cream butter.
add sugar a little by little.
cream until fluffy!
add eggs, 1 at a time.
grate zest and squeezed out juice.
sift in the flour.
lastly pour in the SPRITE ... and mix well.
Mine bake in
- 30 minutes time
- 160 Celsius
- mode control -----> upper&lower heating
- convection function
- wire rack on bottom
- pre-heat oven in 20 minutes time
cake texture still pretty soft but partially fluffy on top, moist on bottom. Eliminating flavoring and switching it to a real lemon is a correct decision made. The zesty flavor from the lemon itself is matching so well with pound cake.
