Limoncello poppyseed olive oil cake
Cakes
This recipe was adapted from the incredible Maialino's Olive Oil Cake.
<br />Olive oil cake to me has always been dense and somewhat off-putting, leaving a sugary oily residue on my tongue; however, after making Maialino's version and reevaluating how olive oil can add incredible silkiness to a baked good, I decided to try again.
<br />This cake is perfect. It is everything you love about a light lemon poppyseed muffin in the morning, a sophisticated silky soufflé for dessert, and the bright tart flavor of limoncello.
<br />From the original recipe, I added whipped egg whites, poppy seeds, buttermilk, limoncello in the cake itself as well as the glaze, and candied lemon slices.
<br />Simple, beautiful, and delicious.
