This is my adaptation of a classic recipe using mascarpone as the cream cheese and some redcurrants, which are not normally expected.

Ingredients

50 min
8 people
  1. 300 gmascarpone or other favourite full fat cream cheese
  2. 87.5 gcaster sugar
  3. 150 mldouble cream
  4. 17 gflour
  5. 2large eggs
  6. 1/4 tspsalt
  7. Grated lemon zest

Cooking Instructions

50 min
  1. 1

    Pre-heat your over at 200 C. Cream your cheese and sugar on a low whisk or if you have a stand up mixer with the paddle attachment, making sure that your cheese is at room temperature. Add and beat your eggs one at the time to a light and airy batter. Pour the cream, add the remaining ingredients and fold, from the bottom, trying to keep as much air as possible.

  2. 2

    Line a 20 cm ring cake tin with parchment paper and pour your mixture. This may seem quite liquid at this stage, but is the way is supposed to be. Don't worry if the paper will crinkle around the batter, as will contribute to the final effect. If you would like to add some fruit, now is the time preferring sour flours as it will contrast perfectly with the richness and creaminess of the cake. Bake for about 50 minutes until the top is 'burnt'.
