Tarta de Santiago is a no nonsense almond cake that requires little time and even less skill or effort. Naturally gluten-free cake for the long weekdays.

As I recently have some time, I had been looking on the internet last week. In need of new, stirring thoughts, inspirational dishes that We have never tried before, to impress my family with. Searching for a while unfortunately could not discover any interesting stuff. Right before I thought to give up on it, I stumbled on this tempting and easy dessert simply by chance. It seemed so delightful on its photos, that required instant action.

It absolutely was easy to imagine how it’s created, how it tastes and just how much my hubby might enjoy it. Mind you, it is rather easy to delight the man when it comes to treats. Anyway, I got into the blog: Suncakemom and used the step by step instuctions which were combined with great graphics of the method. It just makes life less difficult. I can suppose it is a slight effort to shoot pics in the midst of baking in the kitchen as you typically have gross hands and so i really appreciate the time and effort she put in to make this post .

With that in mind I am encouraged presenting my own, personal formulas in a similar fashion. Appreciate your the thought.

I was fine tuning the main mixture to make it for the taste of my family. I have to mention it had been a great success. They prized the flavour, the consistency and enjoyed having a treat such as this during a hectic week. They ultimately requested even more, a lot more. Hence the next occasion I’m not going to make the same miscalculation. I’m going to double the amount to keep them delighted.
