Instructions
- Prepare the Cake:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
- In another bowl, beat eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. Add oil, milk, rose water, and food coloring (if using). Mix well.
- Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely.
- Prepare the Rose Milk Syrup:
- In a saucepan, heat milk and sugar until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and stir in rose water and food coloring (if using). Let it cool.
- Assemble the Cake:
- Once the cake has cooled, poke holes all over the top using a skewer or fork.
- Slowly pour the rose milk syrup over the cake, allowing it to soak in.
- Spread whipped cream evenly over the top of the cake.
- Garnish with dried rose petals.
- Serve:
- Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
Notes
Adjust the amount of rose water according to your preference for a stronger or milder flavor.
For a richer flavor, you can use condensed milk in the syrup instead of regular milk and sugar.
Store the cake in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
