When I was a little girl, I would ask my parents to buy me this one specific cake from bakery. It was custard cake, which luckily I’ve recreated myself (without these extra toppings on top, but less is more) :).
Whoever has tried my custard cake, loved it and my husband is probably enjoying it right now at his work. Yes, he loves it very much.
I thought why not share it with my lovely followers who can enjoy it, as well?! 🙂
I’ve also created a video for you, because I know from my own experience that it’s always easier when you actually see a person making it.
Anyway, enough “talking” and let’s get to the recipe itself! 🙂
Easy-Peasy Custard Cake Recipe:
- 4 eggs (separated)
- 1/4 cup of honey

Tips:
-you can subtitute honey with: sugar, molases or maple syrup (and add up to 1 and a half cup of one of your choice if you’d like it sweeter);
-instead of pink himalayan salt, you can use sea salt;
-milk can be either 1%, 2% or 3.2%
