*Preheat* your oven to 180°C (350°F). On parchment paper, draw a circle and *spread* 2 to 2.5 tablespoons of batter evenly within. Bake for 6-8 minutes or until *lightly golden*. Repeat for remaining layers.

Step 2

Step 3

🌱 **Gluten-Free Delight:** Swap out the regular flour for a gluten-free blend. Ensure your baking powder is also gluten-free to make this treat suitable for gluten intolerant guests.

💚 **Vegan Variety:** To make this cake vegan, replace eggs with flaxseed meal mixed with water (1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 3 tbsp water per egg), use a plant-based butter substitute, and opt for vegan cream cheese and coconut cream. Your vegan friends will thank you! 😋

Faq

  • How can I prevent my cake from sticking to the pan?

    Always use parchment paper to line your pan, and make sure the batter is spread evenly to avoid any sticking.

  • Can I prepare the batter in advance?

    Yes, you can! Just be sure to store it in an airtight container in the fridge and reach room temperature before baking.

  • How do I know when the cake layers are cooked?

    The layers should be golden and firm to touch. You can also use a toothpick test: insert it into the center, and if it comes out clean, it's done!

  • What’s the best way to slice the cake for serving?

    Use a sharp, non-serrated knife and wipe it clean between slices to ensure clean, professional-looking cuts.

  • Can I substitute mascarpone with regular cream cheese?

    Absolutely! While mascarpone adds a richer flavor, cream cheese can be used as a more tangy alternative.

  • How can I add extra flavor to the cake?

    Consider adding vanilla extract to the batter or a teaspoon of coffee to the cream for enhanced depth of flavor.
