Maria | 21 comments Hi everyone,
I want to share with you one Slovakian recipe is Slovakian Desserts and I like it.

Babovka - Cake

* 5 eggs
* 250 grams powdered sugar
* 250 grams backing flour (regular, not self rising)
* 150 ml vegetable oil
* 150 ml hot water
* 2 tsp. baking powder
* 1/2 tsp. vanilla - if desired for taste
* 1 tbs. cocoa powder
* Butter or shortening to grease pan

* Separate egg whites from yolks. Set the whites aside.
* Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
* Mix yolks with sugar. Add slowly oil, then hot water.
* Mix in flour and backing powder.
* Beat egg whites alone in another bowl until they expand about 3 to 4 times. Use an electric mixer on high speed for this.
* Add these egg whites to the batter. Mix by hand. Add vanilla if desired.
* Pour half into greased round angel-cake pan. Mix the cocoa into the remaining half and pour on top of the first layer in the pan. Don't mix together.
* Bake for 45 minutes. Check with toothpick (toothpick will not have mixture on it if the cake is done) by poking it into the cake.
* Sprinkle finished cake with powdered sugar.
* You could also add raisins or nuts to the original batter or pour chocolate on top of the finished cake.
