    Uh oh - help!

    I'm about to make this cake, but I accidentially mixed sugar with the two flours and baking powder, while I should have whipped the sugar with butter.

    So do you think I can just mix in the butter with the flour now and then stir the eggs in? I hope that will work!

    Here is the cake:

    Tosca cake

    120 gram butter (room temperature)
    250 sugar
    4 eggs
    250 gram almond flour (you can blend that yourself)
    130 gram wheat flour
    1 tsp. baking powder

    Mix flour, almond flour and baking powder.

    Whip softened butter and sugar until white in a large bowl. Stir in two eggs at a time and mix well, then fold the flour mixture in.

    Glazing:

    80 gram butter
    80 gram sugar
    1 tsp. honey
    80 gram almond flakes

    Put this in a pot and boil for a few min. until it's all melted. Let it cool off a bit.

    I poured the doug into one of these:

    ... but you can use another kind.

    Smear the glazing on top of the dough and bake until it bubbles and is light golden (175 Celsius = low) for about 30 min. or until a knife inserted halfway between center and edge comes out clean and center of pie appears barely set.

    I would whip the butter and eggs together, since if you just add the butter to the dry mixture, it might clump up too much. Then slowly mix in the butter/eggs to the dry mix. Nothing ventured - nothing gained!

    Thanks! Yes, that is an option and I may just do that.

    Yes, because you aren't whipping the egg white, a whole different technique, it doesn't make much difference what spot in the order the sugar goes in! Sounds yummy, enjoy!
