Mum’s Recipe for Cake Sheera

Mum’s Recipe for Cake Sheera

You may wonder why the name "Cake Sheera" Well, this is how my Mum makes Sheera and ever since we were kids, she would make us cut it as if it's a cake and sing Happy Birthday and clap and she still continues to do it with her grandkids! *PRECIOUS* She used to do this because whenever she would make this kind of a sheera, my brother and I would make a fuss to eat it because we always wanted 'Restaurant Sheera' or 'Bowl Sheera' and unfortunately she didn't know how to make 'Restaurant or Bowl Sheera' and back in the day, to her bad luck (or I'd say Good luck) there were no recipe channels at the click of a button to help her learn how to make it! So, to get us to eat this she would decorate the Sheera, add various food colours to make it look attractive, garnish it and finally sing the Birthday Song and make us cut the Sheera as if it was the highest privilege to do so and that's how the name "Cake Sheera" came into being! Then she would cut the Sheera into diamond shapes(for me these are the REAL Diamonds). Now, as Im so far away from home, the Cake Sheera has suddenly become so Precious and It is my Husband's favourite! It is so true, when we get something easily, we don't understand it's value! Sharing with you all, my Mum's recipe for Cake Sheera!
