Pound Cake | Four quarters a super easy cake

So the holidays are fast approaching, and during this period I remember how very little one already liked to look for cake recipes to try . Especially since during the Christmas holidays, it was so long, and suddenly I never bored it to try the recipes, eat, and start again lol! On this occasion, I decided to share with you 1 cake recipe per week until New Year's Day 😊

Today so I offer you an ultra easy recipe for cake to make during Christmas holidays . This is simply four quarter known also as Pound Cake

Four quarter/ Pound Cake why this name?

The real pound cake recipe dates back to the 1700s . I have read that: the name " Pound Cake " comes from the way it is prepared. In the original recipe we used that 4 ingredients flour, sugar, butter, eggs in equal, it which each represent a quarter.

Here I will present you a little revisited version of the recipe , because I find that personally put 250 grams of butter and sugar in a cake is super fat. I decrease the amount of sugar and butter , but you see if you want to do normally with 250 grams for each ingredients

 A four -quarter and light quarter: how to succeed in your dough? 

• Try not to mix the cake dough too much , you will get a dense and soft cake.
• Use the eggs, the butter at room temperature . So a few hours before making the cake, remove the eggs and the butter at the same time from the fridge.

How to keep your cake 

The eighty-quarter was kept in an airtight container to prevent it from drying out . Make sure it is completely cooled before placing it in a storage container or a plastic bag to avoid condensation formation.

You can keep it up to 3 days at room temperature or up to 2 months in the freezer.
