Steam Chocolate Cake by Ivy Lam




Steam Chocolate Cake by Ivy Lam


Ingredient A (sift together)
1 cup of cocoa powder

1 ¼ cup of plain wheat flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp bicarbonate soda

Ingredient B (melt using hot bath- very chocolatey)
1 cup of sugar (if no ganache)*sweetness to you liking
1 cup of milk
1/3 cup of condensed milk (if no ganache)*
¾ cup of oil / butter
Ingredient C
4 egg Whisk till foamy

Ganache *
(optional- I avoided as this add on more fats haha)

When ingredient B cool off, stir in eggs, then the dry ingredients bit by bit, combine well

Once done, pour into a grease pan (I used the parchment paper to line the pan for easier dislodge later)

Steam in a prepared boiling water wok/pot for about 45 min- 1hr depending on the height of your cake in the pan. (pls remember the cake will rise, not to fill to the brink, ¾ full is ok)

I covered it lightly with parchment paper to avoid steam dripping onto the cake, you may use Aluminium foil if you don’t have the paper.

Take out the pan and leave to cool. 
Top with Ganache if you like –more attractive and appealing and fattening not to mention haha

Enjoy the moist yummy chocolate cake, here I am using cocoa powder & not chocolate Cheers
