Raspberry Cake Recipe for Valentine’s Day

Yields6 ServingsPrep Time20 minsCook Time40 minsTotal Time1 hr

Here is a raspberry cake, very simple and quick to make for celebrating Valentine's Day. I am not a good baker, but everyone approves of this foolproof and delicious cake. I thought of calling it "bleeding heart," but that sounds a bit Halloween.

Ingredients
 200 Fine sugar
 80 Sugar for the sauce
 200 Butter
 200 Flour
 4 Egg
 1 Yeast
 500 Frozen raspberry
 3 Water
 Sugar heart for decoration
Directions
1

For the raspberry coulis: in a saucepan, mix 200 g of sugar, water, and 300 g of raspberries and bring to a boil. (Keep about 200 g of raspberries for decoration and to add to the cake.) Stir and let simmer on low heat for 20 minutes. Strain the coulis to remove the seeds. Let cool.

2

Melt the butter over low heat. In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar with the melted butter. Incorporate the eggs one by one, and finish with the sifted flour and baking powder. Add a few drops of food coloring if desired. Mix well. Grease and flour a baking pan or use a silicone mold.

3

To finish, pour the batter into the mold, adding some raspberries. Bake at 180°-200°C for 30 to 40 minutes depending on the type of oven. Let cool and top with raspberry sauce... decorate with the remaining raspberries and sugar hearts...
