Week 32: Spice Cake

This is a variation to the classical 4/4 cake (quatre quarts). You start by taking four eggs and beating them an equal amount of sugar (roughly 50 grams per egg) and about a tablespoon of cinnamon, one tablespoon of ground cloves, one tablespoon of ground coriander seedsand one tablespoon of ground cardemom (pretty much the same as in Aachener Printen). Add the same amount of butter (again, about 50 grams per egg) and then mix in the same amount of self-raising flour.
pour the batter into a greaed and floured cake tin and bake in a pre-heated oven at 200ºC for 45-60 minutes depending on the type of cake tin you use.
