Tips:

  • Choose the right cake batter. A light and fluffy cake batter is best for oven-broiling. Dense batters, such as pound cake or cheesecake, will not broil evenly.
  • Preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible. This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside of the cake while keeping the inside moist.
  • Place the cake batter in a shallow baking dish. A 9x13 inch baking dish is a good size. Make sure the batter is spread evenly in the dish.
  • Broil the cake for 2-3 minutes, or until the top is golden brown. Keep a close eye on the cake so that it does not burn.
  • Serve the cake immediately with your favorite toppings. Ice cream, whipped cream, or fruit are all great options.

Conclusion:

Oven-broiled cake is a quick and easy way to make a delicious and impressive dessert. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a cake that is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a last-minute dessert, give oven-broiled cake a try.
