Robiola or Robiolina Cake

The fresh cheese robiola has a delicate flavor that’s fantastic in pasta sauces, for making tasty finger foods (like two walnut halves paired with a robiola and herb cream) and is also suitable for preparing sweet creams like this one that creates the robiola cake!

  • Spatula
  • Mixer

Preparation of ROBIOLA CAKE

  • For the base of the robiola cake chop the biscuits in a mixer together with the softened butter.

  • Line the mold (I use 9.5 inches) with parchment paper, then pour in the biscuit base and using a spoon (or a meat tenderizer wrapped in plastic or paper) compact it well at the bottom pressing it carefully.

  • Place the mold in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.

  • FOR THE CREAM pour the robiola, 4.2 oz of sugar, only the yolks (set aside the whites), and the flavorings into a bowl.

  • Mix well by hand or with an electric mixer.

    Start to whip the egg whites, adding the remaining 0.7 oz sugar once they start to foam, making a sort of meringue.

  • Fold it into the robiola cream gently to obtain a fluffy mixture.

  • Pour the robiola and meringue cream over the compacted biscuit base.

    Bake in a preheated oven at 320°F for about 50 minutes or depending on the characteristics of your oven. Let it cool completely, dust with powdered sugar, and serve the robiola cake!

Tips and Notes

Robiola is a fresh soft cheese named after Robbio, a city in the province of Pavia. It is a cheese with a very delicate, creamy, and velvety taste and can be made with cow’s, sheep’s, and goat’s milk or a mixture.
