Encores

You’ll need to add

For the dough:

• 3 medium eggs
• 150 g soft butter or margarine
• 50 ml milk (1.5% fat)

For the glaze:

• 20 ml (2 tbsp) lukewarm water

Preparation

Make the dough

1. Preheat a conventional oven to 180 °C (fan approx. 160 °C).
2. Put the baking mix, soft margarine or butter, eggs and milk in a mixing bowl and mix with an electric hand mixer (whisk) briefly on the lowest setting at first, then on the highest setting for around 3 minutes, until creamy.

Bake

1. Now grease a loaf tin (25 cm) and dust it with flour. Add the dough and smooth out.
2. Bake the cake on the middle shelf of the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes. After around 15 minutes’ baking time, make a cut 1 cm deep lengthwise in the middle of the cake. Use a wooden skewer to check the cake is ready before taking it out of the oven.

Cool and glaze

1. After baking, remove the cake from the tray and place on a wire rack to cool.
2. When the cake is cooled, you can mix the glaze mixture with lukewarm water until smooth and spread on the cake with a knife.
