Video Delicious Poppy Seed Cake Recipe for Everyone

Give this tasty recipe a go and impress everyone with your baking skills! Start with the cake base, combining soft unsalted butter and sugar until it's light and fluffy. Then, add in egg yolks and vanilla sugar for a delicious richness. Don’t forget to mix all-purpose flour, poppy seeds, and baking powder before folding it into your batter. Bake this golden treat until a toothpick comes out clean. While that's baking, whip up a fluffy meringue by beating egg whites until frothy. Gradually add sugar, continuing until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in cornstarch and crushed pistachios for an added crunch. For the rich cream filling, mix cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth, then incorporate heavy cream until it's thick and creamy. Once your cake has cooled, spread the cream filling on top, then pipe or spread the meringue in a lovely pattern. Return it to the oven until that meringue is golden and crisp. Slice, serve, and enjoy this delightful pastry with family and friends.
