Ingredients for the Perfect Exquisite Rose Milk Cake

Here’s what you’ll need to create this floral wonder:

  • For the cake:

    • 1 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1 cup granulated sugar
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 1/2 cup milk (and a splash more for the rose milk)
    • 3 large eggs
    • 1 tsp baking powder
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • 2-3 tbsp of rose water (adjust to taste)

  • For the rose milk syrup:

    • 1/2 cup milk
    • 1/4 cup sugar
    • 2-3 tbsp rose water
    • A few drops of pink food coloring (optional, but why not add some pizzazz?)

Steps to Make Your Exquisite Rose Milk Cake

  1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Trust me, this step is as necessary as your morning coffee!

  2. Mix the Batter: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Then, stir in the milk and vanilla extract. Look at you, already creating cake magic!

  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Gradually add to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined—no overmixing, okay? We want that cake to be light and airy!

  4. Add the Floral Flair: Gently fold in the rose water. Take a moment to inhale; it smells like joy!

  5. Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into a greased round cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  6. Make the Rose Milk Syrup: While the cake bakes, combine the milk and sugar in a saucepan over low heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves, then add the rose water and food coloring. Set aside to cool.

  7. Soak the Cake: Once the cake is out of the oven, poke holes in the top using a skewer or toothpick. Pour the rose milk syrup over the warm cake, allowing it to soak in. It’s like giving your cake a soothing spa treatment!

  8. Chill and Serve: Let the cake cool completely, then refrigerate for at least an hour to let those flavors meld. Slice, serve, and bask in the admiring glances from friends and family.

Cooking Tips to Make Your Baking Experience Even Sweeter

  • Adjusting the Rose Flavor: If you’re new to cooking with rose water, start with 2 tablespoons and then taste. You can always add more—but you can’t take it out!
  • Decorate Away: Consider topping with whipped cream and edible rose petals for a stunning presentation. Instagram-worthy? I think so!
  • Make it Moist: To keep your cake extra moist, you can brush it with leftover rose milk syrup right before serving.
