Hwangdo Yogurt Cake

Unlike a rich-tasting pound cake (which this looks like) the Hwangdo yogurt cake has a nice, light flavor. Sometimes simple really is the best. The crumbs sprinkled on top provide a variety of textures.This cake is perfect as a gift when you don't have a lot of time to prepare something elaborate.

 

 

 

Before baking the cake, you need to line the mold with parchment paper to make it easy to separate.

1. Cut the parchment paper lengthwise to match the height of the side of the mold.

2. Fold the parchment paper inward about 2cm, make slits on the bottom and follow the shape of the mold.

 

 

3. Place the bottom of the mold on parchment paper, trace with a pencil, and then cut with scissors 0.2cm inside the pencil line.

4. Insert the cut-out parchment paper on the bottom of the mold so that the parchment paper holds its shape well.
