Cream Cake Without Bases

ingredients

Cake  include:

1. One cup of all-purpose flour
2. One teaspoon of baking powder
3. One-fourth teaspoon of baking soda
4. 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 cup softened unsalted butter
5. One cup of sugar granules
6. Two huge eggs
7. One teaspoon of vanilla extract
8. Half a liter of buttermilk (or milk with half a spoonful of lemon juice)

Regarding the Cream Topping:

1. One cup of thick whipping cream
2. 1/4 cup of powdered sugar, or more if desired
3. One teaspoon of vanilla extract
4. Chocolate shavings or fresh fruit (optional garnish)

Directions

• Warm up the oven:
  Set the oven temperature to 175°C (350°F). Use parchment paper or grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan.

Prepare the cake batter:

• Mix the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Put aside.
• Cream the granulated sugar and softened butter in a another dish until they are light and creamy.
• One by one, add the eggs, thoroughly mixing each time. Add the vanilla extract and stir.
• Alternating with the buttermilk, gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir just until incorporated.

Bake:

• Fill the cake pan with batter, then level the top.
• A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean after baking for about 25 to 30 minutes. After 10 minutes of cooling in the pan, move it to a wire rack to finish cooling.
• To make the cream topping, beat the heavy cream in a mixing basin until it forms soft peaks. Add vanilla essence and powdered sugar gradually while whipping until stiff peaks form.

Put the Cake Together:

• Spread the whipped cream topping liberally on top of the cake after it has cooled fully.
  Serve after garnishing with chocolate shavings or fresh fruit, if preferred. Slice and serve right away, or let set in the refrigerator for an hour.
• Advice: This cake is light and adaptable; to change the flavor, you may mix in chocolate powder or lemon zest.
• Although it can be kept in the refrigerator for a few days, it is best consumed fresh.
