Strawberry Shortcake
- 3 Eggs
- 90 grams Sugar
- 80 grams White flour
- 25 grams Butter
- 200 ml Heavy cream
- 3 grams Sugar (for the cream)
- 1 tsp Kirschwasser
- 1 pack Strawberries
- 2 tsp Non wet powdered sugar
- Cut an 18 cm circle of parchment paper to line the cake pan.
- Sift the flour.
- Melt the butter in a double boiler.
- Preheat the oven to 170C.
- Add the sugar to the eggs in three parts, whip until you can no longer make more bubbles.
- The batter should fall like a ribbon when you lift the electric whisk (ribbon stage).
- Mix on low for 1 minute (the texture will become smoother).
- Pour in the flour all at once.
- Fold it in until no longer powdery, turning the bowl as you go.
- Pour the melted butter into the batter over a spatula.
- Mix by scooping the batter from the bottom.
- Line the cake pan with the parchment paper circle, pour in the batter, and bake at 170C for 25 minutes (it is done when a toothpick or skewer inserted in the center comes out clean).
- Let cool in the pan on top of a rack.
- Set aside half of the strawberries for the top decoration, then finely chop the other half.
- Add the sugar to the heavy cream and beat over ice water.
- When it becomes like thick whipped cream, add the kirschwasser and it's done.
- Slice the cake in half horizontally and make a sandwich with the cream and chopped strawberries.
- Spread cream around the outside surface of the cake, then decorate with the whipped cream and whole strawberries.
- Dust the non wet powdered sugar over the strawberries and it's done!
