Whenever I saw people posting water melon cakes or cookies,I weren't interested but just admired their creativity and hard work.Lately,I don't know why I suddenly became very interested and had tried to make this water melon layered cake.
I wanted to use raisins instead of the chocolate chips for the seeds,but I don't have raisins at home,so I just used chocolate chips.I'm very pleased with my cake.
Perhaps next time I'll use raisins.
INGREDIENTS;
10 Eggs
500G Golden Churn butter
200G caster sugar
300G Hong Kong flour
1 small tin kaya
1 small tin condensed milk
50G santan/coconut cream
1Tbsp ovalette
1Tsp vanilla essence
1 botol chocolate chips
2Tbsps of cocoa to mix with the red batter
Red,Yellow and Green colouring
METHODS;
1. Preheat oven to 200°C.Line an 8"x 8" baking tray with greaseproof paper on the bottom and lightly grease the sides with butter.
2. Beat butter,sugar,vanilla and ovalettes till creamy and fluffy using high speed.
3. Add in eggs one by one till well combined.
4. Switch the beater to low speed and add in the milk,kaya and santan/coconut cream.
Beat again till all are well-mixed
5. Add in the flour in batches or slowly(bits by bits).Mix well.
6. Divide the mixture into 3 portions:
Using the soup ladle,
Portion 1-Scoop up 3 ladles-Add in green colour
Portion 2-Scoop up 2 ladles-Add in yellow colour
Portion 3-The rest of the portion add in red colour and cocoa powder
7. First layer,set the oven to top and bottom heat.
8. Pour the first layer of green to the baking tray.Spread it evenly.Grill with top and bottom heat for about 7 mins or when it turns slightly brown.Take it out from the oven
.
9. Change the oven setting to top heat only and pour in the second green layer,third green layer,then first yellow layer,then second yellow layer,and follow by the red layers till all the
layers are used up.Flatten each layer with a flattener.If no flatterner,use the bottom of a glass.
This is to ensure that no wind are trapped inside and that the cake are level and nice.Each
layer of red must put in some chocolate chips as the seeds.
10. After all layers are baked,cool on a wire rack.When cooled,cut into water melon shape.
