Cake with jam
Description
It pairs perfectly with tea and coffee. Jam cake is a simple dessert from my childhood. Nowadays you can buy or make any cake, but back then a can of condensed milk was a great find. Often my sister made it only with jam, but for holidays she added custard cream with condensed milk. The cake turned out amazing! I'm sharing the recipe,
