All gave good reviews, so I had to give it a try too. And it's true that this recipe yields a nice and soft cake which also loved by my family
The texture is something like in between of sponge and butter cake. Yummy! :)
The recipe below...
What you need:
4 eggs (room temperature)
120g sugar
100g plain flour
20g milk powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
75g butter (melted)
some buttercream, chocolate spread, chocolate rice and grated cheese for topping
(I sprinkled 2/3 of the cake with chocolate rice and the remaining with cheese)
Method:
- Lightly grease 20cm square baking pan. Preheat oven to 150degC
- Sift together plain flour, milk powder and baking powder
- In another bowl, mix melted butter with vanilla extract
- Beat eggs and sugar til light and fluffy (ribbon stage - about 10mins on highest speed)
- Fold in flour mixture gently
- Scoop 1/4 of the batter and add into the butter mixture, stir til combined
- Pour back into the remaining batter and fold in gently
- Pour batter into the baking pan and bake for 30mins until skewer test comes out clean
- Remove from oven and transfer onto a cooling rack
- When cooled completely, add in topping by spreading buttercream and sprinkle with grated cheese, and spreading chocolate spread and sprinkle with chocolate rice
In this recipe, I used vanilla extract from Bake The Natural Way
They're kind enough to send me a set of their vanilla products for me to try out
The vanilla extract is quite subtle and nice, with some sweetness in it. For those prefer stronger vanilla flavor, some adjustment to the quantity is required
I had previously used it for making vanilla ice cream and I like it too :)
A set of Madagascan vanilla extract, vanilla powder and vanilla pods

My choice
Nice cake with relatively easy preparation. A keeper :)
