We're having cake for company and you’re invited… this holiday season! Lucky for you — Julia's doing all the heavy lifting!
Delighted to be here, Julia!
“It’s a lovely, light cake.” — JC
A butter bath for the cake pan.
Flour, too!
Add cake flour. “You’ve probably seen me do this hundreds of times. You’ll see me do it hundreds of times again.” — JC
Three egg yolks and a ½ cup of sugar = no match for Julia's elbow grease.
A lovely, velvety texture.
“The folding is really the trick to the whole business." — JC
Melted butter? Yes, please!
25-30 minutes at 350 degrees.
Open her up when ready.
A few drops of Orange Liqueur.
Add orange butter filling.
Brush with apricot glaze.
Coat with almonds.
“I’ll cut you a piece so you can see how nice it looks.” — JC
