Hello, greetings to everyone in this lovely Hive Food community, today I want to share with you a delicious snack for this Sunday afternoon, a raisin cake with malt, this is a traditional Venezuelan dessert since it is widely consumed during this Christmas season. It is common to find it in bakeries and pastry shops during the Christmas season and on the tables of Venezuelan families.
The flavour of the malt raisin cake is an intense and delicious flavour that improves over time as the raisins are macerated. The original recipe includes chocolate and also cloves, but with the ingredients I had I made it with only raisins and malt and it really turned out very good. I hope you like this recipe as much as I do and that you can also make your own Christmas cake.

First, in a cup of suitable size to make a mixture for a half-kilo cake, we will place the 500 grams of butter and sugar and beat with a wooden spatula, beat until obtaining a very soft and fluffy mixture.

Now that the mixture is very soft and fluffy, I'm going to add the three eggs, but first I have to check if they are good. First I put them in a separate cup to avoid damaging the mixture. Here I also beat until no trace of the eggs could be seen.

Here in this step I placed the 500 grams of wheat flour and the cup of malt and also a little vanilla essence, I also stirred the mixture but more carefully because I do not want the wheat flour to lose air and the cake not to be fluffy.

In the last step, add the raisins and also grease a half-kilo tray and place it in the oven for 30 minutes at medium heat. Of course, that depends because my kitchen has a very powerful oven, but if your oven is not as powerful, use a slightly higher heat and just be careful that it doesn't burn.

My cake is ready and it is very fluffy. I just let it cool for a moment and it is ready for a snack. It has been a long time since I made a Christmas cake. I hope you liked this recipe and that you can continue to accompany me in preparations like these delicious desserts.
