Islak kek is a delicious Turkish cake, we would call it a Wet Cake because the whole cake is topped and it is very moist. Islak kek is one of those cakes that my family members would like to eat every day. I like it cold, from the fridge, and my children reheat it in the microwave in winter days. Its preparation is simple and quick and with just a few ingredients you get a first-class cake.
