Part 2/4:
These ingredients create a moist, flavorful cake that is sure to please everyone at the table.
Preparation: Mixing It Up
To start, whisk the eggs, salt, and sugar together until the mixture becomes fluffy—this should take about 3 to 4 minutes. Fluffiness is crucial for the light texture of the cake.
Next, incorporate cottage cheese or ricotta, butter, and vanilla paste into the mix. Beat these ingredients until the mixture is smooth, ensuring a delightful creaminess that will be the heart of the cake's flavor.
In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined. To add a touch of sweetness and texture, gently fold in the raisins.
