Re: hair trigger - There's a screw that controls the snugness of the speed lever, and it comes loose over time.

[@xyzsame4081]

I would give it a good coating with a butter wrapper and soft butter or margherine. and then do the coating with bread crumbs. (you can also improve spots if you find out that you missed a spot, not possible with oil / flour). It is more messy than applying oil with a brush but it also holds more bread crumbs (or flour) so it creates a better crust / separation. Which means you get it our of the form more easily.

Tuna casserole? :) Crab cakes? :) :)

@@JohnBodoni Definitely! Maybe a tuna layer cake with a crab ju glaze?

Made this last night and I can't believe how fool proof this recipe is! Seriously so good, easy and makes you feel like a pro.

So I, like an idiot, started making this recipe thinking i had everything on hand... But i didn't have any milk and had thrown away my almond extract long ago 🤦‍♀️ So i substituted the milk with a bit of almond milk but mostly greek yoghurt, and put a whole lot of amaretto in there, then glazed with amaretto and lemon juice, basically making an amaretto sour cake.... It was delicious and I'm glad i powered through haha, sorry for the blasphemy!

This cake is absolutely incredible! I had the batter made and in the oven in less than 15 minutes. It was a huge hit for my husband's birthday. Thanks for sharing Claire! Your videos are always a joy to watch. :)

I just made the flourless almond chocolate cake! SO GOOD!!

Are any other Germans watching? Cause this is like the ultimate childhood cake for me, the form the glace and poppy seeds so nostalgic. Is it also so nostalgic for other europeans? I really need to try this.

We have something similar in Poland too, it's called "babka wielkanocna" and it's a traditional Easter cake
