Perfect for chilly evenings or anytime you're craving a touch of sweetness, this comforting treat combines rich rum-soaked raisins with a fluffy sponge cake for a taste of pure bliss.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup raisins
- 1/2 cup dark rum
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish or individual ramekins.
2. In a small saucepan, heat the rum over medium heat until warm (do not boil). Remove from heat and stir in the raisins. Let them soak for about 15-20 minutes, then drain and set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
5. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined.
7. Fold in the rum-soaked raisins.
8. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or ramekins.
9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
10. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
11. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired, and enjoy warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.![Ice cream :ice_cream: 🍨](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f368.png)
