Capital cupcake according to GOST with raisins

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make a capital cake with raisins according to GOST? Prepare the products. Important condition: all ingredients must have the same temperature - room temperature. Therefore, remove the eggs and butter from the refrigerator in advance. Take the raisins without seeds. Wash the eggs and dry them with napkins.

2. Step 2:

   

   Rinse the raisins thoroughly under warm running water, and then dry them by placing a thin layer on a napkin or paper towel.

3. Step 3:

   

   Take the soft butter. Add regular and vanilla sugar to it. Using a mixer, beat the butter and sugar until fluffy.

4. Step 4:

   

   Without stopping beating, add one egg at a time. To do this, it will be more convenient to break them into a separate cup. After each egg, mix the mass well.

5. Step 5:

   

   As a result, a homogeneous liquid mass should be obtained.

7. Step 6:

   

   Add raisins to it. Stir with a spatula so that the raisins are evenly distributed.

8. Step 7:

   

   Sift all the flour and baking powder into a bowl in a whipped mass. Sifting saturates the flour with air, so baking becomes more lush and airy.

9. Step 8:

   

   With a mixer at low speed, stir the flour until the dough is completely homogeneous.

10. Step 9:

    

    Take a rectangular shape. It was in this way that the Capital's cupcake was baked during the Soviet era. My form is 20*9 cm in size. I use a silicone mold, it does not need to be prepared in any way. If your mold is made of a different material, then lubricate it with a thin layer of butter or vegetable oil. Put the dough into the mold. Smooth it out with a spatula. Be sure to make a furrow in the middle with a wet spatula so that the cupcake bursts beautifully on it when baking, and not randomly.

11. Step 10:

    

    Bake the cupcake in an oven preheated to 170 ° C for about an hour and a half (be guided by your oven). The cupcake will rise strongly and burst along a pre-drawn strip. Cool the hot cupcake right in the mold, then take it out and sprinkle with powdered sugar on top.
