So, it was some trial and error on the new recipe that I researched and followed from a YouTube tutorial and for once, I decided to be hardworking to bring out my handheld mixer to do some serious works. Ya lah, I am a funny person. I am so lazy to bring out my mixer and rather be hardworking to manually beat and mix my flour/and ingredients and yes.... all these time. I figure I must be serious this time and so guai guai brought out the handheld.
Ingredients:
Mixture A:
125g butter (room temperature)
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp Vanilla Essence
Mixture B:
2 cups of Cake Flour
2.5 tsp Baking Powder
0.5 tsp salt
1/4 cup milk x 2 cups
Mixture C:
3 bananas (2 mashed bananas and 1 banana roughly mashed into chunks)
Choc Chips
Choc rice
Step 1:
Preheat the oven for 15mins at 170 degrees. Lightly grease the baking tin.
Step 2:
Mixture A- Using the handheld mixer, mix the butter and sugar into cream (light and fluffy). Add in vanilla essence and one egg and continue to mix (on gentle speed) until creamy again. Add in the 2nd egg and continue to beat until well mixed and creamy.
Step 3:
Mixture B - Sieve 2 cups of flour and baking powder and salt over Mixture A. Mix gently and add in the first 1/4 cup of milk and continue to mix on medium speed. Add in the 2nd 1/4 cup of milk and mix on medium speed. It should end up creamy and smooth.
Step 4:
Mixture C - Add in the mashed bananas and go on gentle mixing. When the bananas are well mixed, add in choc chip and choc rice (leave some aside for decoratives) and using a spatula, fold everything in gently. Take note not to overmix.
Step 5:
Pour the mixture into the greased tin. Bring the tin to about 2 inch high and gently "drop" on the workstation to get rid of the air pockets. You can also gently knock all 4 walls of the tin for the same purpose.
Step 5:
Send the tin into the oven to bake at 170 degrees for 35-40mins. When baking is done, use a skewer or a toothpick to test the done-ness. If the stick come out clean, the cake is done. If its still wet and gluey, fret not. Extend bake time by another 15-20 mins but reduce the temperature to 150 degrees. Do avoid frequently opening the oven to check no matter how tempted you are. The loss of heat may result in caving in, something we will hate to see.
Step 6:
Using the skewer again, check for done-ness one more time. If all parts are firm when poking in and comes out clean, the cake is done!
Dun say bojio! I jio you to start baking now. lol!!!
Happy mum
