For Taste & Create this month, I was paired with Vanillastrawberryspringfields. This is quite the picture blog. She has a ton of awesome photos and is quite talented!
I chose the Babka Cake because I thought it looked interesting. I am Polish and my great aunt makes Babka frequently but I know that she uses yeast in it. Or I am fairly certain that she does? I didn't know that there was even such a thing as Babka Cake.The original recipe called for a custard filling in the middle. There was not a custard recipe posted and I didn't want to look any further for a custard recipe. So I decided to just go ahead and make it without. While it was baking I figured that I could put some strawberries on it with Cool Whip and it could be very tasty. This is the perfect cake for strawberry shortcake.... That is for sure. It is a great cake and I am very glad that I chose it.

The babka that I make has an egg white / cinnamon sugar filling. However, your version looks really good.
Have a great Thanksgiving!
UR absolutely right natalie-i read around alot for this babka cake-and yeah all the jewish babka's have yeast & the cinnamon/sugar/chocolate filling but i was looking for a cake w/o knowing babka existed & found this one!:-)this is the only one i found-even after looking arnd lods ,all the others were the yeast or more towards bread type versions.
