You got to try this cake. It is soft and moist. Those without an oven at home, like me, this recipe is heaven sent. If you don’t tell, no one knows that it is steamed not bake.

I got my sis to help me “bake” one for my girls during the recent Mooncake festival. Once some one noticed it. It is gone within 15 minutes. Even my girls’ teacher asked for the recipe.

I am going to make 2 more this weekend. One for a blogger friend of mine and another for my SIL. They are having pot blessed this coming Monday.

So, here’s the recipe:

2 Cups All Purpose Flour
3/4 Cup Cocoa Powder
2 Teaspoon Bicarbonate Soda
1/2 Teaspoon Baking Powder
(Sieve the above)

2 Cup Castor Sugar
3 Eggs (Grade A)
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Essence
1 Teaspoon Fine Salt
1 Cup Corn/Sunflower/Olive Oil
1 Cup Evaporated Milk
1 Cup Warm Water

Method:
1. Beat the eggs and sugar till fluffy.
2. Add in the sieved dry ingredients bit by bit.
3. Add in the milk, oil and water.
4. Beat till everything is mixed.
5. Add in the salt and vanilla.
6. Pour the batter into the baking tray.
7. Cover with aluminum foil and steam for 1 to 1.5 hours under medium fire.

That’s all.

Happy Baking Oh! Happy Steaming!
