Ingredients

  • 125 g butter
  • 180 g sugar
  • 1 packet vanilla sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 125 ml milk
  • 250 g flour
  • 0.5 packet Baking powder

  • 100 g cream cheese (plain)
  • 20 g butter
  • 50 g powdered sugar
  • 4 tbsp Lemon juice
  • decorative sugar (heart-shaped, star-shaped, pink sugar)

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) with fan or conventional heat. Beat the butter with the sugar and vanilla sugar until light and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then pour in the milk and stir. Combine the flour and baking powder, sift over the batter, and whisk thoroughly with a whisk to incorporate. Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and bake for 35-40 minutes until golden. Remove, let cool briefly, turn out onto a wire rack, and allow to cool completely.

    Crush the cooled cake into crumbs in a bowl. Beat the cream cheese with butter and powdered sugar until fluffy, then fold in the cake crumbs. Shape the mixture into small balls (about 2 cm diameter) and chill for at least one hour. Thread each ball onto a stick, dip briefly in lemon juice, and roll in decorative sugar.
