Fluffy cake made only from egg yolks – notes
I recently made meringue and again had egg yolks left over.
And since I don’t like to waste food, I made a cake with egg yolks and raspberries.
For my cake, I used 6 egg yolks, which I mixed with sugar like kogel mogel (egg yolk dessert).
To prevent the cake from being too dry, I added a little milk and before baking, I added raspberries.
I used frozen fruits and did not thaw them beforehand.
For flavor, I flavored the cake with lemon juice and added a little lemon zest.
Instead of juice, you can use food flavoring – also in a different flavor.
The egg yolk cake turned out very fluffy and delicious.
How to store egg yolk cake?
You can store the cake directly on the counter for a few days – place it in an airtight container, or cover it with a glass or plastic lid.
At my place, the leftover cake lasted from Thursday to Monday and tasted great!
If you want the cake to last longer, due to the added fruits, you can store it in the refrigerator – especially if you make it on hotter days. Then fruits have a greater tendency to spoil.
Egg yolk cake is also suitable for freezing. Wrap it tightly in cling film and freeze. It can safely stay in the freezer for 2-3 months.
If you have excess egg yolks and don’t know what to do with them, try this recipe for cake with egg yolks and raspberries.
