Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk or electric mixer
  • Rectangular baking mold
  • Oven
  • Wire cooling rack

Ingredients

  • 220 g pastry flour
  • 180 g sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 85 g raisins
  • 100 ml rum
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 100 g unsalted butter (melted)

Instructions

  • Start by soaking the raisins in rum for 30 minutes.
  • In a mixing bowl, melt the butter and combine it with the sugar; whisk until smooth and creamy.
  • Crack the eggs one at a time into the mixture, beating well after each addition.
  • Drain excess rum from the raisins and gently fold them into the batter.
  • Sift the flour and baking powder together, then gradually mix them into the wet ingredients until smooth.
  • Pour the batter into a greased rectangular mold and smooth the top; bake at 170°C (340°F) for 40-45 minutes.
  • Let the cake cool in the mold for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and dust with icing sugar.

Notes

Store the cake in an airtight container; it lasts up to 3 days at room temperature or up to a week in the fridge.
If freezing, wrap individual slices and thaw overnight in the fridge before serving.
