Semolina Cake (Eurasian Recipe) image

This is a wonderful cake which is a dying recipe. Why dying cos...it's a eurasian recipe...a cross between a almond and a butter cake. But because it is such a well kept secret....the recipe is dying cos so few people have it now. Try it.., it's quite dense though i must warn ya. Eurasians are a race people in asia call Kids of european and asian decent. Usually made for eurasian weddings. :)

This recipe is a waste of time. My cake didn't even come close to turning out right.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cake turned out dry and crumbly.

I was looking for a semolina cake recipe and this one caught my eye. I'm so glad I tried it! The cake is moist and flavorful, and the orange zest gives it a lovely citrusy flavor. It's also really easy to make, which is a bonus.

I've made this cake several times now and it's always a winner. It's so moist and flavorful, and the orange zest gives it a lovely citrusy flavor. I like to serve it with a dollop of yogurt or whipped cream.
