Lychee cake with butterscotch


Ok now I know you got a hint that I try to make cake out of anything, and tell you all the truth I have realised that the world and the nature is so versalite that it does listen to us if we respect them. Ok so here where have I given the respect to the lychees to turn it into cakes .. I will tell you how :)

Being a mother I wish my kids eats all the good things specially seasonal fruits and being a south Indian have never tasted lychees before, and being privileged  to live in a big city  u get variety of seasonal fruits available across the country. And since my kids take only selective fruits my crazy mind worked in a cakey way :) and the result is a lychee cake. Though the cake was sold at home I would frankly tell you that the cake dint have much flavour of lychee, since lychee itself has a very subtle taste. Anyway still if you want to know the recipe here it goes

Whole wheat flour- 1 cup
Sugar - 1/2 cup ( powdered)
Butter - 1/4 cup
Lychee puree - 2/3 cup
Eggs - 2 no.s
Baking powder - 1 tspn
Butter scotch - a handful (optional)

Method
Sift the flour with the baking powder and keep aside
Beat the eggs till fluffy and then add the sugar and beat again
Add the flour mixture to the egg sugar mixture little by little by adding lychee puree in between and make sure the wet and dry ingredients are well incorporated . Make sure you dont over mix the batter and finally throw in some butterscotch into the batter.
Pour the batter into mould and bake at a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted come out clean. Let the cake sit outside for about 5 minutes and then turm to a wire rack and slice when it cools down.
Done .. Bake and enjoy!
