The strawberry and mascarpone cake is a very simple to make dessert; instead of butter in this cake we find the creamy mascarpone cheese that gives it an extraordinary softness. Very easy to remember, the recipe states that the weight of the flour, eggs, sugar and fresh cheese must be the same. Finally, strawberries are added to the dough to give an additional touch of fresh sweetness. Soft but moist, this dessert is perfect for a delicious breakfast or a healthy and genuine snack.

After the cooking time, take the cake out of the oven and let it cool. Transfer it to a serving dish, sprinkle with a little icing sugar, garnish with fresh strawberries and serve (6). This cake is excellent both cold and warm.

Preservation

Due to the delicacy of strawberries, it would be good to consume the cake in a short time or keep it in the refrigerator for a maximum of 3-4 days, closed in a special airtight container or wrapped in a sheet of transparent film.
