Comment préparer Vasilopita Greek Saint Basils New Year's Cake

  1. Wrap a silver or gold coin tightly in aluminum foil.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10-inch round cake pan with 1 tablespoon of butter.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and 2 cups of sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Gradually add 3 cups of flour, mixing until the batter resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons baking powder and 1 cup of milk. Add to the batter and mix well.
  7. In another small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1 teaspoon baking soda. Add to the batter and mix until just combined.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Gently insert the foil-wrapped coin into the batter.
  9. Bake for 20 minutes.
  10. Remove the cake from the oven. Sprinkle 1/2 cup chopped nuts and 2 tablespoons of sugar over the top.
  11. Return the cake to the oven and bake for an additional 20-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  12. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  13. Once cooled, serve warm. Traditionally, the oldest person cuts the first slice, followed by the rest of the family.
  14. Whoever finds the coin is believed to have good luck in the coming year!
