Bolu Coklat Kukus -Bentuk hati ( Steamed Chocolate Sponge cake) And another award passing from my lovely friend

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

How to make:

  1. 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.
  2. Sift together: Flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, vanilla powder.Set aside.
  3. 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.
  4. Fold in the flour mixture gradually until blended. fold in melted margarine or olive. Fold until completely mixed.
  5. 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.

    Hi Citra-Thank you so much for the lovely award, I received the same award from Mina, as well. Now I have 2 to pass on.
    I love your beautiful and light cake, the ribbon looks amazing and festive for Valentine's and so pretty hear shape.
    BTW-I left a comment for you a couple weeks ago, re: an award for you, sorry you missed it...the award originally came from a blogger friend, from Hungary.
    It was back, on Jan. 25 when I left you a comment about the award.
    I will send you the link again, if you would like to receive it. It's still waiting for you!

    Dear Citra,

    Thank 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.

    Cheers,
    Brooks
