Ring Cake ( Ciambella )
Instructions
In a bowl, put 2 sticks of softened butter and start beating, then add the vanilla... a pinch of salt and 1 cups of sugar, and beat everything until foamy and light-coloured.
Once you have this mixture, add one egg at a time always beating. The eggs must be at room temperature.
This is how the mixture looks, now add the grated zest of 2 lemons and fold in the sifted flour and baking powder, alternating with the fresh milk.
And finally, here is the dough for the ring cake; now take a 10-inch tube pan, that has been greased with butter and floured; put in the dough and bake at 350F (180C) for at least 50 minutes.
50 min. - 350F (180C)
