I demonstrated the way to prepare this chocolate to the maid at my brother's house, she would be able to make this cake for my brother's family especially for my father who is a chocolate lover. The result is not so moist compare to the cake that I steamed again for Tammie's friends (Matriculation Perak for the year 2012) who came down to Kuala Lumpur for a short holiday. They are very anxious wanted to taste Tammie's mom home food. Hi guys! How you like Aunty Christine home made cake, give your comments, good or bad are most welcome!

Hi Christine, your cake looks super moist! Thanks so much for linking this to LTU :)
ReplyDeleteI steam this cake today. Follow exactly and it turns out great. I made it into cupcake instead of the 8inch tray.
ReplyDeleteThe cake is light, fluffy, moist and not too sweet.
Thank you for the recipe. Gonna share with my family soon. :o)
Hi Sc, I am so happy tat your cake turn out great! <3
DeleteHi Christine would need your advice as my cake batter turned out to be too solid and not runny at all before I pour into the cake tin. I have followed exactly the measurement. Izit because my milk mixture did not cool down completely. I did not use the double boil method. I poured into saucepan. Is that the cause?
ReplyDeleteHi Chew, the batter should be running. If you follow the ingredients and method, the cake should out perfect! successful. Try again I am sure u will not be disappointed. The above lady Sc u follow exactly and turn out great, and she made into cup cake instead and with no problem. Let me know yr next attempt. Happy baking! Thanks!
DeleteAwesome recipe! I halved the recipe and made it in my small ramekin moulds and they turned out great! My family and friends loved it! The cake turned out moist, not too sweet and had that bittersweet chocolaty taste! Oh, I also added 1/2 tsp of instant coffee powder and a pinch of salt. That probably brought out the flavours too :) Thanks for this great recipe!!
ReplyDeleteHi Joyce, glad that yr family and friends loved this steamed cake. The cake with coffee flavours is just pecfect for coffee lovers!
ReplyDeleteHi can I just melt the butter & milk in a ordinary pan since I dont have double boiler or something. Thank u
ReplyDeleteHi She, the double boil method used here is to place the pot with butter and milk over another pot of simmering water or hot water where the heat is lower. The butter will then melt without burning. Hope this will be able to assist you in yr baking!
DeleteThanks. I tried this. Came out perfect. Will be making it again for a 70th birthday today.
ReplyDeleteHi Tommy, Gooood...... I am sure the 70th birthday boy/girl will sure love it! Happy Birthday to him/her!
