A cake that gathered a lot of praise from colleagues, conquered with a strong aroma and a fine and moist texture inside - and the taste of cheese is not felt at all.

What's impressive is that the cake, which I mostly associate with English speakers, appeared in ancient Rome. Initially, barley puree was mixed with raisins, nuts, pomegranate, and other ingredients.

It became more popular in the 16th century; historians link this to the appearance of sugar, and its name comes from English - "cake", while in Polish it is identical to the Russian name "keks".

Ingredients

  • 400 gr of baking cheese (I used 16% fat)
  • 1 packet of butter
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 packet of baking powder
  • 1 packet of vanilla sugar
  • 170 gr flour
  • 200 gr superfine sugar
  • salt
  • powdered sugar

Method of preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C and separate the egg whites and yolks.
  2. Beat the egg whites with a little salt until you get a light foam.
  3. In another bowl, beat the vanilla sugar, a little salt, soft butter, sugar, and egg yolks until you get a fine cream.
  4. Add the cheese in 3 stages (preferably sieved).
  5. Gently incorporate the egg whites into the cream in 2 stages.
  6. Pour the mixture into a buttered pan and bake for 60 minutes at 170 degrees C.

Bon Appetit!
