I was planning to make another tiramisu-as my hubby request (again). He loves Tiramisu a lot I think (^_^). 1st plan I wanted to make tiramisu with lady finger base, but when I saw many egg white left in my refrig, then I decided to make this sponge cake as the base.
And here it is my basic sponge cake with steamed version. With this "heart shape" I think it'll be more cute :)
Ingredients:
- 500 ml egg whites
- 1 cup caster sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla powder (I just can find this powder version here ^_^ )
- 1 ½ cup flour.
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 120 ml olive oil / or melted margarine
- 500 ml egg whites
- 1 cup caster sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla powder (I just can find this powder version here ^_^ )
- 1 ½ cup flour.
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 120 ml olive oil / or melted margarine
How to make:
- Heat a steamer with enough water for about 45 minutes. Grease your "heart shape" pan with butter and lightly dust with flour. Set a side.
- Sift together: Flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, vanilla powder.Set aside.
- In a large bowl, using electric mixer whipped egg whites, gradually mix in caster sugar, continue beating until sugar dissolves completely. Add salt and continue beating until fluffy and stiff.
- Fold in the flour mixture gradually until blended. fold in melted margarine or olive. Fold until completely mixed.
- Pour into baking pan and steam about 30 minutes or until cooked. Check with bamboo skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean.
Enjoy with your beloved friend and family.

Dear Citra,
BalasHapusThank you so very much for the touching award! I'm delighted you thought of me and it is a great compliment to come from a peer. Cakewalker is in its infancy and this recognition is encouragement to keep doing what I enjoy... Be sure to have a lovely Valentine's Day. Your steamed chocolate sponge cake should ensure just that.

Brooks
