Buttery Love Xmas Shortcake
- 1 tbsp Margarine
- 3 Eggs
- 90 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Cake flour
- 1 pack Strawberries
- 300 ml Heavy cream
- 3 tbsp Powdered sugar
- This time I used "Margarine made for those who love butter."
- Use a paintbrush to spread some room temperature margarine in the cake mold and chill in the refrigerator for a moment.
- Add flour (not listed in ingredients, about 1 Tbsp).
- Swirl around the mold and hit the sides to cover the entire thing with a dusting of flour.
- Remove the excess powder.
- Melt the margarine from the ingredients in a double boiler or the microwave.
- Preheat the oven to 170C.
- Beat an egg in a bowl.
- Add the granulated sugar and beat together with a hand mixer.
- Beat on high speed for 5-6 minutes until the batter lightens in color and thickens.
- You should be able to leave streaks (ribbons) of batter behind when you lift it up and let it drip down.
- Sift in the flour and mix together by scooping up the batter from the bottom and folding it in with a rubber spatula.
- Mix thoroughly until no longer floury.
- Add the melted margarine and mix together quickly with a rubber spatula.
- Pour into the cake mold from Step 3, tap against the counter to release any air bubbles, and bake for 30 minutes in a preheated 170C oven.
- The cake is done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center and comes out clean.
- Remove from the mold while still warm and place on a cooling rack to cool.
- Decorate the cake.
- Once the spongecake has cooled, cut it in half horizontally with a knife.
- Slice 7 strawberries and leave the rest to decorate however you want later.
- Make the whipped cream.
- Put the chilled heavy cream into a chilled bowl, add the powdered sugar and whip together with a whisk.
- Whip quickly to form soft peaks.
- When you scoop it up with the whisk, the tip of the whipped peak should curve slightly.
- Place the bottom half of the spongecake on a cake stand or flat plate and spread on about 8 Tablespoons of whipped cream.
- Place the sliced strawberries on top of the cream and then cover them with about 4 more Tablespoons of whipped cream.
- Flatten it out and place the top half of the cake on top.
- Cover the top with the remaining whipped cream.
- Spread it out with a pallet knife.
- Decorate the surface with the remaining strawberries.
