Bizcocho Dominicano
- 2 cups of all purpose flour
- 2 tsp. of vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup of orange juice or pinapple juice
- 2 cups of butter
- 2 cups of sugar
- 2 tsp. baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 4 eggs
- less than a 1/3 of a lemon peel.
- 1 can of condensed milk
- Non-stick baking spray
- Mixed the butter & sugar until it is creamy. Add the eggs one by one. Slowly add the orange juice, the vanilla extract & a bit if rum (if you like)& the lemon peel. Slowly add the flour to the mixing, the baking soda & cornstarch. Mix until the flour is creamy.
- Take a round pan & butter it all around with the non-stick spray & a bit of flour (if your are just using a stick of butter). Pour the mixing into the pan & put the cake into the already pre-heated oven of 350 degrees then lower the heat once you place the cake in it. Let it bake for 45 minutes to an hour- depending the size of your cake. In order to determine if the cake is done, poke it gently with a knife-if it comes out clean with no batter/residue, then the cake is done. When done, take the cake out the oven & set the cake to cool.
- To make the frosting: you will need 5 egg whites and 1 cup of sugar. Mix in high speed until the frosting is very thick. As a cake filler, you can spread either caramel, condensed milk, or fruit spreads e.g: guava, or pineapple in the middle of the cake, then decorate it with the frosting.
