A small hot milk sponge cake (finally!) to take to friends. I made 1/4 of the KAF recipe — thanks everyone for the recipe suggestions, which I will work my way through, and @Nannybakes for her test run!
I added orange zest and extract to the batter, and thinned the very last of some strawberry jam to spread in the middle.
1/4 recipe made a thin cake in an 8x4 loaf pan.
It’s a very soft and tender cake. For my own taste, I would cut the sugar by 1/3, but I left it as is for others this time.
I have fior di latte and pistachio gelatos to serve with it, though it’s lovely as is,
