Yummy Cake Rusk Recipe

In this post I will show you how to make yummy Cake Rusk using simple ingredients usually present in every home.

Ingredients in Oz and Grams:
8 oz or 226 grams Butter (room temperature)
8 oz or 226 grams Sugar
8 oz or  226 grams All purpose flour
4 Eggs
2 Tsp Baking powder
1/2 Tsp Salt
1 Tsp Vanilla extract

Ingredients in cups:
1 cup Butter
1 cup Sugar
1 3/4 cups All purpose flour
4 Eggs
2 Tsp Baking powder
1/2 Tsp salt
1 Tsp Vanilla Extract

Preparation:
1) Put the butter in a bowl and beat it. It is essential that the butter is at room temperature.
2) Add the sugar to the butter and beat until it is creamy.
3) Scrape off any of the batter off the sides and bring into the center with a spatula.
4) Beat it again until it is nice and fluffy.
5) Add an egg and beat the batter for 30 seconds. Be sure to scrape off any batter that gets on the side of the bowl. Repeat this 3 more times. Make sure the batter looks fluffy and consistent.
6) In a separate bowl add the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir it with a fork
7) Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the fluffy mix. Beat the batter afterwards
8) Take the floury mix and one-third of it to the batter. Mix it together and make sure that there is no flour visible. It should all have mixed into the batter. Repeat this 2 more times. By adding the flour little by little, we make it so that the batter is easier to mix and gives better results.
9) Scrape off any of the batter that is stuck to the side of the bowl.
10) Pour in the batter into a pan (I used a 10 in x 6 in. pan lined with parchment paper with some oil) and spread it evenly. Tap the pan so that no air is left inside the mix.
11) Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius) for around 35 minutes. Check for readiness after 30 minutes (To check for readiness, take a fork and poke a hole in the middle of the cake. If the fork comes out dry, it means the cake is ready).
12) Let the cake rest for about an hour to an hour and a half.
13) Take the cake out and Cut it in half. Cut parts of the cake about half an inch to an inch.
14) Spread the portions on a baking tray and bake again at 325 degrees Fahrenheit (about 160 degrees Celsius) for about 20 minutes.
15) Flip the pieces over and bake again at the same temperature and the same amount of time.
16) Once you take the rusk out, it should be golden brown on both sides.
