So I thought, why not make this cake together? I want to show you how I prepared it my way, incorporating some of my personal touches. Throughout this presentation, I will share not only the ingredients and steps required, but also some tips and tricks I have learned along the way. I am sure that by the end, you will be as excited as I am to try this delicious cake. So, let's get to work!

The first thing I did was turn on the oven and set the temperature to 180°C (350°F). This is crucial for the cake to cook evenly. Let the oven preheat for at least 10-15 minutes before placing the cake in it.
Once this is done, take a cake pan and with a piece of butter or a little oil on a paper towel, grease the entire inner surface of the pan, making sure to cover the edges. Sprinkle a small amount of flour into the pan, moving it around so that the flour covers the butter. This will help the cake not to stick. Then, discard the excess flour.

After greasing the mould, we begin by preparing the ingredients. In a large bowl, add 80 g of butter, making sure it is at room temperature so that it mixes easily, and then add the 150 ml of milk. Use an electric or manual whisk to mix both ingredients well. Beat until the mixture is completely homogeneous and there are no visible lumps. If you want to give it a special touch, you can add a few drops of vanilla essence, which will enhance the flavour of your preparation. Next, we begin by adding the fresh eggs. Beat everything together for several minutes before adding the flour; we do this to ensure that all the ingredients are well distributed.

With the wet ingredients ready, it's time to add the dry ingredients. At this stage, it's crucial to make sure the mixture has the right texture to make your cake fluffy and delicious. Start by adding the flour to the wet mixture, but do it gradually. This process is crucial, as adding the flour all at once could cause lumps to form, which will affect the final texture of the cake. With a spatula in hand, begin to gently mix, using folding motions. This method not only helps to integrate the flour evenly, but also prevents the mixture from becoming too dense. It's important to take your time at this stage; don't rush it. The key is to mix just enough so that all the dry ingredients are moistened, but without over-mixing. Remember that over-mixing can develop gluten in the flour, resulting in a harder cake instead of a fluffy one. So, continue mixing until you no longer see dry flour in the mixture, but stop as soon as the flour is fully incorporated. This care in the mixture is not only essential for the texture, but also contributes to the flavor and structure of the cake. After adding the flour I wanted to add 2 tablespoons of extra sugar so that my dessert would feel sweeter, it is optional, since the flour has its own sweetener, once all the dry ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture has a homogeneous appearance, we place it in the mold that we greased at the beginning.

Place the cake mixture in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. It is important not to open the oven door for the first 20 minutes as this can cause the cake to sink due to temperature changes. To determine if the cake is ready, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean or with some moist crumbs, it means the cake is perfectly cooked. If, on the contrary, it looks sticky, you will need to bake it for a few more minutes. Check the doneness every 2-3 minutes until you get the desired result. Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven carefully to avoid burns and leave it in a safe place for 15 minutes to cool.

Once the cake is completely cool, place it on a flat surface. Use a sharp knife to cut it into slices. You can choose square or triangle cuts, depending on your preference. I made 6 generous slices, but you can adjust the size to suit your taste and the number of people who will be enjoying it. Place each slice on a plate and, if you wish, serve it with a little cream, fresh fruit or ice cream to enhance the flavor. Enjoy your delicious cake; it's a practical and delicious way to make desserts that everyone is sure to love.
Making an instant flour cake is not only an act of cooking, but an opportunity to create special moments. Each shared slice becomes a celebration of creativity and simplicity. I loved the process of baking, and I realized that sometimes the simplest things can bring the greatest happiness. So, feel free to experiment in the kitchen and enjoy the process; each recipe is a new adventure waiting to be discovered.
