Berry ripple cake

Berry Ripple Cake is a delightful dessert that combines the richness of butter and sugar with the tangy sweetness of berries. It's a simple recipe that's perfect for any occasion, whether it's a family gathering or a special treat for yourself. The cake's moist and tender crumb paired with the vibrant ripples of berry makes every bite irresistible.

Ingredients:

1 cup butter
220g
1.50 cups sugar
300g
4 eggs
200g
1/4 cup self-raising flour
36g
1 cup milk (1% fat)
240g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Cream the Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This usually takes about 3-5 minutes.
3. Add the Eggs: Add the eggs to the butter-sugar mixture one at a time, beating well after each addition. Ensure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
4. Mix in the Flour: Gradually add the self-raising flour to the mixture. Beat until just combined, being careful not to over-mix.
5. Alternate Adding Milk: Slowly add the milk to the batter in a gradual stream while continuing to mix at a low speed. Mix until the batter is smooth and well-blended.
6. Prepare the Fruit Ripple: To create the berry ripple effect, you can use fresh berries or berry jam. If using fresh berries, lightly mash them with a fork. Spoon dollops of the berries or jam into the cake batter.
7. Create the Ripple Effect: Gently swirl the berries or jam through the batter using a knife or skewer to create a marbled, ripple effect. Be careful not to over-mix, as you want to maintain distinct ripples of berry throughout the cake.
8. Bake the Cake: Pour the prepared batter into the greased and floured cake pan. Tap the pan lightly on the counter to remove air bubbles. Place it in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
9. Cool the Cake: Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Serve: Once the cake has cooled, slice and serve as is or with a dollop of whipped cream and extra fresh berries on top for an added touch.

Tips:

- Ensure the butter is at room temperature before you begin; this helps in achieving a smoother batter.

- Gently fold in the flour and milk to maintain the airiness of the batter.

- For the berries, you can use fresh or frozen ones. If using frozen, remember to thaw and drain them well.

- Swirl the berries into the batter carefully to create a ripple effect without overmixing.

- Bake until the cake is golden and a skewer inserted comes out clean; avoid overbaking to keep the cake moist.

- Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing to give the flavors time to meld.
