Instruction manual
1
Take nuts of any kind: hazelnuts, peanuts, walnuts and chop them. Rinse the raisins and set aside in a separate bowl for a short while. Nuts and raisins can be replaced at your discretion with chocolate, poppy seeds or candied fruits. You can not add any additional ingredients, but prepare a simple cupcake, but then its "highlight" will be lost.
2
In a deep bowl, rub the butter and sugar (leave a small piece of butter to lubricate the mold). Add the eggs and beat well with a mixer or whisk.
3
Scoop a baking soda with a teaspoon (without a slide) and pour a few drops of vinegar on top. Soda should start to hiss and froth. Pour the resulting foam into a kneaded mass of egg butter and sugar and mix everything. Add flour and knead uncooked dough.
4
Divide the dough into two equal parts. Add chopped nuts to one and raisins to the other. Mix everything thoroughly.
5
Take the baking dish. It can be round or rectangular at least 5 cm high. Lubricate it with butter and lay out the dough with raisins. Put the dough with nuts on it. Do not mix to make the cupcake double layer.
6
Put the cupcake in the oven, preheated to 180 degrees, and bake for about 1 hour.
Remove the cake from the mold and soak on top with a small amount of semi-sweet white wine. If white wine is not at your fingertips, you can soak a cupcake with sweet tea. But even without impregnation, it will be no less tasty. On top of the cupcake you can cover with icing sugar and sprinkle with nuts.
note
Vinegar slaked soda can be replaced with a baking powder. For this recipe you will need 2 tsp. baking powder.
