Cake according to GOST

This cake is the ancestor of all cake variations. The old Soviet taste loved by all of us. Important: all ingredients should be at room temperature. The cake turns out soft, moderately crumbly, with a lot of raisins... Simply delightful!

Flour

240 g

Butter

175 g

Powdered sugar

175 g

Raisins

175 g

Eggs

3 pcs

Starch

1 tbsp (corn)

Baking powder

1 tsp

To prepare the cake according to GOST, beat soft butter until fluffy (5-6 minutes) until it whitens.

Then add powdered sugar in portions and beat again for 8-10 minutes. The mixture should turn into an elastic cream.

Add eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly each time.

Sift the flour twice. Mix with starch, baking powder and add to the butter-egg mixture. Beat everything with a mixer for 1 minute, until smooth. Add raisins to the batter and gently fold in with a spatula.

Grease the form with butter, sprinkle with flour (shake off the excess) and pour the batter. If the mold has a non-stick coating, there is no need to grease it.

Bake the cake according to GOST in a well preheated oven (180 degrees) for about 1 hour. Check for readiness with a toothpick - the cake is ready if it comes out dry.

You can bake this cake in a bread maker (as I did). I used program №11 “Bake only”. The cake baked for 1 hour 10 minutes (Kenwood BM 250 bread maker)
