Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

- 3 large eggs

- ½ cup milk
- 4 ounces white chocolate, chopped

How to Make Sweet Egg-Shaped Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an egg-shaped cake pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared egg-shaped cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake cools, melt the chopped white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the melted white chocolate over the top and sprinkle with crushed nuts.
- Let the chocolate set before slicing and serving.
Tips for the Best Results
- Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother batter.
- Do not overmix the batter; mix until just combined to keep the cake light and fluffy.
- Use high-quality white chocolate for a richer flavor.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before adding the chocolate drizzle to prevent it from melting.
Easy Variations
- Substitute half of the all-purpose flour with almond flour for a nutty flavor.
- Add a few drops of food coloring to the cake batter for a fun, colorful twist.
- Experiment with different toppings, such as shredded coconut or colorful sprinkles.
What to Serve With It
- A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful contrast in temperature.
- Fresh berries for a burst of natural sweetness.
- A dollop of whipped cream to add extra creaminess.
- A cup of coffee or tea to balance the sweetness of the cake.
