Easter Cake with Meringue and Orange Jam

Whisk butter and sugar together until light and airy. Beat in the egg yolks, one at the time. Combine flour and baking powder and gradually add to the mixture, while alternating with the milk. Mix until the batter is smooth, then add the lemon rind.

Turn dough into a 22 cm round springform lined with baking paper. Bake at 200°C for 15 – 20 minutes or until lightly golden. When the cake is out of the oven cover the top with the orange jam.

Whisk the egg whites in a dry clean bowl until you can turn the bowl upside down without anything falling out, then add the sugar gradually and continue to whisk until very stiff.

Spread the meringue mixture on top of the cake and bake for another 15 – 20 minutes until the meringue is golden.

About the Author

The author of the Easter e-Book and creator of DK Design Kitchens new visual identity is the Danish Graphic Designer Kristine Lindbjerg. She has lived in Sydney, Australia, for the past 13 years with her husband and two sons.

She divides her time between working and living in the city and spending most weekends and holidays in the countryside at Turon Gates. She thrives in nature as it is where she refuels and gets inspired, but at the same time, she adores the buzz of the city and the amazing window decorations created by international brands in the city stores. She likes her life of contrasts: being in the garden in gumboots and dressing up with feathers for a party.

Being Danish, EASTER comes with a lot of beautiful traditions. It’s very important for her to pass these traditions on from her grandparents and parents to the next generation.
