You mix all of these ingredients together in just a few short steps. There’s nothing complicated about the recipe: make the batter in a stand mixer with simple ingredients: eggs, sugar, flour, baking powder, salt, vanilla extract, and heavy cream. They don’t take much work to make, and I am notoriously bad at turning them down, even when those fluffy blankets and my comfy couch that’s caved-in the middle are calling my name. This was certainly a simple excuse to make yet another dessert – but what can I say? Cakes are simple and satisfying, just like cookies. Most recently, it was because I had a cup of heavy cream in the fridge that was dangling over the precipice of turning rancid, and I didn’t want to waste it! And then, it was the crazy weekend of making cake pops and royal icing cookies for two of my friends’ back-to-back baby showers. Then, there was the homemade yogurt I wanted to try to use in a marmalade yogurt cake. It all started with a caramel cake recipe I tried, to spruce up my classic vanilla recipe.

This beautiful dessert was inspired by desperation: a glass of heavy cream that was about to go bad!
