This anise cakeBesides being colorful, it has a soft and delicate texture. It has the grated skin of a lemon and also aniseed grain so, if you like anise, you are going to love it.

It is done in a few steps that you can also see in the video that we have prepared and that you will find at the end of the recipe.

The butter that we are going to use is melted butter. You will obtain it by heating the butter in the microwave at a low temperature and always being aware of it so as not to spend time. It is preferable that the milk is warm - we can also use the microwave to heat it slightly.

For the rest, the cake is not too complicated. That you do not have the colored sugar on the surface? Well, do not stop preparing it for that reason. You can replace it with nuts or by chocolate chips.

Ingredients

For the cake:

  • 160 g of sugar
  • The skin of 1 lemon (only the yellow part)
  • 3 eggs
  • 140 g of melted butter
  • 130 g of warm milk
  • 40 g of anise beans
  • 250 g flour
  • 1 envelope of baking yeast (16 grams)

For decoration:

  • 4 tablespoons icing sugar
  • 2 or 3 drops of lemon
  • 2 tablespoons of water
  • Colored sugar noodles

Preparation

  1. We grease and flour the mold.

  2. We preheat the oven to 180°.

  3. We put the sugar and the skin of a lemon in the glass (only the yellow part). We program 10 seconds, speed 9.

  4. We lower what is left on the walls of the glass and add the eggs. We program 1 minute, speed 4.

  6. We put the mixture in the mold that we have previously prepared.

  8. To prepare the icing we put the icing sugar, the water and the lemon drops in the glass. We program 2 minutes, 37 °, speed 4.

  9. We put the icing on the surface of the cake and on it we add the sugar noodles.

It is a sponge cake based on a typical Tuscan sweet called Berlingozzo.

    It looks delicious. And I love the smell of anise ... Could you substitute the anise beans for half milk and half anise liqueur?

      Hi Esther! The mold is 24 centimeters in diameter but it is one of those with a hole in the center.
      I hope you like the cake. A hug!
