This is just a tri colour cake in tribute to our National flag. No other offense or indiscipline towards our Patriotism. Made this on a Republic day as everywhere people roam around in tri - colours, make recipes with tricolours. This one I made using a cake. On cutting this cake also instead of one many tri colurs are got... Jai Hind.
Am glad to share this as I won the recipe/photograph competition (First Prize ) for this cake anc picture.Here is the recipe for this:
Butterscotch flavoured one with milkmaid and butter with glazed icing.
--------------------------
Cake Flour -2 1/4 cup
Butter -150 gm
Milkmaid- 1 tin
--------------------------
Cake Flour -2 1/4 cup
Butter -150 gm
Milkmaid- 1 tin
Egg -4 nos
Milk -1 1/4 cup
Baking powder -1 1/4 tspn
Butterscotch essence/flavour -2 tspn
Salt -1/2 tspn
Food colour -1 tspn each of Orange red/ Keasaricolour and green
Beat together butter (at room temperature) and milkmaid till smooth and fluffy. Beat eggs in milk and add the flavouring to it. Seive together flour, baking powder and salt. Slowly mix the flour mixture to Butter milkmaid mixture. Pour in milk -egg mixture slowly. Mix everything well and seperate in three bowls. Add the kesari colour to 1 bowl and green colour to another one 1 tspn each. The third one is colourless
Preheat the oven at 180 deg celsius and bake the middle layer first for 15 min. and followed by the other layers. Allow them to cool before setting .
For glazed icing:
-------------------
Icing sugar -200 gm
Butter 1 tbspn
Warm water -2 tbspn
Mix butter with icing sugar and add warm water to get a glaze. spread it on the middle layer first and arrange the other layers.
This cake as such is of medium sweetness but the glaze icing in between gives the perfect sweet tasteness required. You can add 1 1/4 cup of sugar if milkmaid is not available..
