Instructions

Cake

  • Preheat oven to 350° F/180° C.

  • In the Whip 'N Mix Chef, add eggs, cover and beat on gear I until eggs are pale and frothy.
  • Add sugar and lemon zest to the eggs, switch to gear II and mix until combined.
  • Attach funnel to the cover then pour olive oil into funnel and slowly mix on gear II until all the oil is gone.
  • Add half of the flour mixture to the mixture and slowly mix on gear II until mostly combined.
  • Using the funnel, pour in milk and slowly mix just until milk is incorporated, then add the remaining flour mixture and mix again.
  • Pour batter into loaf pan and smooth out the top. Bake for 50–60 min. or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center of the cake.

Mascarpone whipped cream

  • While cake is baking, make Mascarpone Whipped Cream by combining heavy cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract in base of Whip 'N Mix Chef. Whip on gear I until stiff peaks form. Add softened mascarpone cheese, and switch to gear II and whip until smooth and creamy.
  • Allow to stand for 10 min. then unmold on a rack. Allow to cool for at least 20 min. before slicing and serving. Serve with Mascarpone Whipped Cream.
