Afuega' l Pitu Cake

Serves 6–8:

• 200 g white Afuega' l Pitu cheese
• 25 g red Afuega' l Pitu cheese
• 400 ml condensed milk
• 600 ml single cream
• 200 ml fresh milk
• 125 g sugar
• 3 eggs
• Jam
• Salt

• Beat the eggs in a medium-sized bowl. Once mixed, add the single cream and milk and mix until smooth.
• To this mixture, add the white Afuega' l Pitu cheese in small pieces so that it dissolves more easily. Whisk until the cheese is completely incorporated into the mixture.
• Repeat this process with the red Afuega' l Pitu.
• Once you have this mixture, add the condensed milk, sugar and a pinch of salt. Whisk again until the ingredients are combined.
• Preheat the oven to 165 degrees.
• Whilst the oven is heating up, choose a cake tin and grease it with butter to prevent the mixture from sticking during baking.
• Pour the mixture into the tin and place it in the oven for 50 minutes. The baking time will depend on the desired texture; you can leave it in for a further 5 or 10 minutes. You’ll know the cake is ready when the edges are golden brown.
• Once the baking time is up, remove the cake from the oven and leave it to cool at room temperature.
• Finally, all that remains is to add the jam, which can be done whilst the cake is still in the tin and cooling, or directly onto the plate.
