Traditional Breton Butter Cake (Gâteau Breton)

  1. Cream the base. Preheat the oven to 180°C. In a large bowl, combine the sugar and the 4 egg yolks. Whisk vigorously until the mixture becomes pale and slightly thickened, a sign that the sugar has begun to dissolve and the yolks are well aerated. Add the soft butter, cut into pieces, along with the rum if using. Work the mixture with a wooden spatula or by hand, pressing and blending until the butter is fully incorporated and the mixture becomes smooth and homogeneous.
  2. Add the flour. Incorporate the flour gradually, mixing after each addition. As the dough comes together, switch to gentle kneading until you obtain a compact, uniform dough. The texture should be sandy and firm, no longer sticking to your fingers, which is characteristic of this sablé-style dough. Avoid overworking to preserve the tender crumb.
  3. Shape the cake. Generously butter a round cake mold, ideally 20 to 22 cm in diameter. Press the dough evenly into the mold, smoothing the surface with the palm of your hand or the back of a spoon. Take time to level the top so the cake bakes evenly and develops a uniform crust.
