BOLO DE CEREVEJA - BEER CAKE - PORTUGAL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, using the high speed of an elenctric mixer or mixing by hand, beat the sugar with the butter, until smooth, about 1 minute.
• Beat in the egg yolks, at medium speed, until the ingredients are fluffy and pale yellow, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Pour in the beer, mixing to blend, then add the flour and the baking powder, mix thoroughly 1 minute.
• In a separate bowl, using clean beaters, beat the egg whites until stiff, then gently fold the beaten whites into the batter.
• Pour into a lightly greased and floured 10-inch tube pan and bake in a 350 degree oven for 50 minutes, until a wooden skewer comes out clean and the cake springs back when lightly pressed with your finger.
• Cool 5 minutes before removing from the pan.
