How to Make Tahini Cake in a Glass Baking Dish?

• For the tahini cake in a glass baking dish, take 3 eggs and 1 cup of granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl. Beat well with a mixer until the mixture becomes frothy and light in color. Add the liquid ingredients, 1 cup of milk and 1 cup of vegetable oil, to the frothy egg mixture and beat for a short time longer.
• Finally, add the dry ingredients: 3 cups of flour, 1 packet of baking powder, and 1 packet of vanilla sugar. Mix with a spatula until the dry ingredients are completely combined and the batter has a smooth consistency.
• In a separate small bowl, for the cake topping: mix 1 cup of tahini, 2 tablespoons of cocoa, and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil (to thin the sauce) until smooth. Pour the prepared plain cake batter into a baking dish (or casserole dish) that you have greased well on the bottom and sides, and smooth the top.
• Pour the prepared cocoa and tahini mixture randomly over the cake batter in the baking dish. Using a knife or toothpick, trace over the sauce to create a marbled/striped pattern on the cake.
• Bake in a preheated oven at 185 degrees Celsius for approximately 40 minutes (until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean), checking frequently. Once the cake is removed from the oven and has cooled slightly, slice and serve. The tahini cake in the glass baking dish is ready. Enjoy!
