ICE CUBE CAKE (LEDENA KOCKA)

This is one of the best desserts I've tried so far. It might take a little more time to prepare it, but it's so damn worth it :) It's better to eat this cake the next day after preparing, just give some time to be even softer, juicer and even more mouth melting. I guarantee you'll love it.

• 6 eggs
• 6 tablespoons sugar
• 6 tablespoons sharp flour
