Cake (the simplest recipe)
Description
Homemade treats for tea. You only need three ingredients to make this amazing cake in your own kitchen. Isn't that incredible? Plus, no baking skills are required—this recipe is so simple even a child can make it. If desired, you can customize the cream by adding citrus zest for fragrance, or a little liqueur for extra flavor (if the cake won't be served to children). Assemble the cake in advance and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 10 hours before serving, so it becomes melt-in-your-mouth tender. The baking is done. Serve it at the table.
