When I feel like having some cake and not spend too much time in the kitchen, my choice is clear: Yogurt Cake! It’s an old classic liked even by the most refined and selective palates like my Pechu.
There are thousands of variations to this to this recipe, surely each mother has her own variation. My mother thought me hers, pretty much as if it was my dowry!
Here then is this multifaceted cake that looks like this today:

Here then is this multifaceted cake that looks like this today:
Yogurt Cake:
1 yogurt cup (I always use regular, flavorless, unsweetened yogurt but you use which ever you like better)
4 cups* of sugar
3 cups* of all purpose flour
1 teaspoon of yeast powder
¾ cup* of sunflower oil
4 eggs
Butter and all purpose flour to spread on the mold
* use the same cup where the yogurt comes in
First, pre-heat the oven at 200º C.
In a bowl, mix the yogurt with the sugar to obtain a uniform, white paste. Add the eggs, one by one, and mix well every time you add them.
In a separate bowl, sift the flour cups into the bowl and add the yeast powder. Take this mix and add it to the first gradually alternating with the oil.
Now, spread the butter on the mold and sprinkle the flour. Once done, pour the mix onto the mold.
Take it to the oven for approximately 40 minutes or until you can pinch it and see that the pick comes out clean. Once ready, unmold and let cool.
Decorate as you wish. Today I glassed it!
At home we like to accompany a slice of cake with a delicious cup of green tea. It’s truly tasty!
