But due to many commitment with other events, fulfilled my kids'requests, busy running errands, and lastly, my boy fell sick, he still is now, but more stabilized - I couldn't make time at all and finally today I made this, at the very last day before deadline... ooppss!! :)
This cake is so soft, smooth and moist - too buttery for my liking, due to so much butter used, but I guess it helped in getting the best texture of this cake. Right amount of sweetness to me. Not too intense chocolate flavour, but it's alright to balance with the horlick layers. Delicious steamed cake loved by my whole family
Forget about diet for a day won't do me any harm, I guess, unless if it's being said in daily basis LOL
Recipe source is from HERE
What you need:
250g butter (I used unsalted butter with 1/4 tsp salt)
1/2 cup icing sugar
5 large eggs
200g sweetened condensed milk
70g horlicks
30g cocoa powder
1 sdt vanilla essence
1/2 cup hongkong flour
- Heat up steamer over medium heat, wrap the cover with clean cloth
- Grease 20cm round pand and line with baking paper
- Beat butter and sugar til creamy
- In low speed, add in eggs one at a time, add in vanilla essence and mix well
- Gradually, add in sweet condensed milk alternating with hongkong flour til well mixed
- Divide the batter into 2 parts, one part mix with horlicks, the other part mix with cocoa powder (use spatula)
- Spread a layer at a time in the pan (I scooped 5 heaped tablespoons for each layer), and steam each layer for 6 minutes
- After spreading the last layer, steam for further 30 minutes
I was out of sweetened condensed milk - realized that at the very last minute

1 cup full cream milk powder
2/3 cup sugar
