TODAY'S TIP: LAZY DAISY CAKE

 

 

This recipe is more than 50 years old. Presumably its name arises from

the fact that it's an easy mix-and-bake cake, rather than the kind

where you have to carefully fold in egg whites and tiptoe around the

kitchen lest your creation collapse. In any case, it's just as tasty

today as it was in the 1950s!

 

2 eggs, at room temperature

1 cup sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 tablespoon butter

1/2 cup hot milk

 

Topping:

5 tablespoons brown sugar

3 tablespoons milk

3 tablespoons butter or margarine

1/2 cup chopped nuts

1 cup grated coconut

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 7-inch by 11-inch

baking pan, or line the bottom with parchment paper.

 

Beat eggs with sugar until fluffy. Add vanilla. Sift together flour

and baking powder; add to sugar mixture. Melt butter in hot milk and

add to other ingredients. Bake 20 minutes.

 

Bring topping ingredients to a boil in a saucepan. When cake is done

baking, remove from oven and pour boiling mixture on top. Return cake

to oven to brown.

Thanks for that recipe! Sounds yummy!

 

I don't eat eggs, so here's how I substitute for cakes or muffins, just it

case someone might be interested.

 

For a small recipe like this one, I add one tablespoon vinegar and 1 teaspoon

baking soda. I add the vinegar to the milk and the soda with the flour. The

sour milk makes the cake nice and light. (for a larger recipe - like 2 or 3

cups of flour, I put 2 tablespoons of vinegar and 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking

soda.)

 

Sometimes, if there is not much fat in the recipe I also add a bit of oil

(about the amount of liquid that the eggs would give).

 

Hope this helps!

 

By the way, I tried this recipe for NO-BAKE COOKIES we received a couple days

ago and they are absolutely GREAT! I used carob instead of cocoa, and it

tasted almost like fudge. You have to try them! Thanks to whoever posted

it!

Hi,

I remember the lazy Daisy cake. Easy to fix, something new! and no

icing, which was harder then before cans and boxes of such. Yes I got the

recipe.

Hi,

Okay, I got both the messages on the cake, works great. Wondered about

the egg thing. You know those powdered egg whites Wilton carries with their

stuff? Do the no egg folks use this sort of thing? I'm not actually even

sure if they are truely eggs. Also, why not those egg substitutes in the

grocery?
