With its golden, pillowy crust, light dusting of powdered sugar, and luxuriously creamy filling, this cake looks like something straight out of a fairytale.

This cake is a showstopper for birthdays, celebrations, or even as a Sunday afternoon treat with coffee. Surprisingly, it’s not as complicated to make as it looks—you just need a little patience and the right ingredients.
