How to make
In a bowl, mix all of the liquid ingredients (except the cream) along with the sugar. Stir, until the crystals dissolve.
The flour is sifted with the baking powder and added in portions while beating with a wire whisk. If the mixture is too thin, add more flour, until it reaches the consistency of cake batter, but it shouldn't be too thick.
Pour it into a 7x11″ (18x28 cm) square baking pan covered with baking paper. Arrange the almonds on top.
Bake the cake at 360°F (180°C) in a preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until it is fully baked.
After the cake is baked, turn off the oven and leave the baking pan inside with the door open for at least 10-15 minutes.
When it has completely cooled, make a topping of melted white chocolate and cream and to enhance the anise flavor and aroma, add a spoonful of crushed anise grains.
After the anise cake is poured with the topping, it is left again for a few minutes, so that the chocolate can set.
It is served with tea, coffee or milk.
Enjoy!
* I have adapted the recipe from the well-known Tarta Malagueña, but with some changes in the ingredients, which I have achieved a juicy, aromatic and delicious cake with, which my whole family is in love with.
