Steps to make date cake
(The oven must be monitored) + (The different sizes of the pieces and trays used in baking must be taken into account)
1
Soak the dates in warm water, then mix well until they become a smooth, homogeneous mixture.
2
Using a wire whisk, beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla at high speed for 3 to 5 minutes until a white mixture forms, then add the dates.
3
At the lowest speed, gradually add the flour, salt, baking powder, cardamom, cinnamon, and instant coffee (after sifting them) and beat until the flour disappears. Then add the butter, being careful to retain the air in the mixture without overbeating.
