Mother of all sticky cakes - Alla kladdkakors mamma

MOTHER OF ALL STICKY CAKES
Alla kladdkakors mamma

This is the classic kladdkaka or sticky cake, the one almost everyone made in the 70s or 80s. Easy to make, gooey, lovely chocolaty taste, full of calories … what more can you ask? Oh yes, whipped cream with it, in large quantities! And maybe a splash of orange in the batter, or the Swedish sweet arrack punsch, or … But, as I said, this is the mother of all kladdkakor (“kaka” is Swedish for “cake” in singular, plural is “kakor”.)

Makes 1 cake

3½ oz butter or margarine
2 eggs
1 ¼ cup sugar
1 cup flour
4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
1½ teaspoon vanilla sugar
salt


Grease and flour a springform pan, diameter approx 8 inches. Melt the fat on low heat. Beat eggs and sugar until fluffy and add the fat. Mix flour, cocoa, vanilla sugar and salt and stir this into the egg batter. Gently stir until lump free. Pour the batter in the pan and bake at 390F for about 20 minutes.

Enjoy!
