KEK LAPIS KUKUS MARIE
I have not make cakes with biscuits for a long while.Many years as to say.Today,I make a steamed biscuit cake,that is the cake uses biscuits in substitute for flour.It is a very nice cake
and I very much enjoy my afternoon snack with a cup of hot tea.I bought a few packets of Marie biscuits last week because it is on promotion price and very cheap.It seems that nobody at home
is interested in opening the packets or eating it.So,I thought of turning it into cakes,and at last they
all ate it and say that it's nice.It's finished very fast!My family all enjoy it.
So,here it is,my Marie biscuits steamed cake.
INGREDIENTS;
200G Butter
150G Marie biscuits(blend till fine)
130G sugar
4 Eggs
2 Tbsps Cocoa Powder
METHOD:
1. Sieve the cocoa powder.
2. Put the Marie biscuits in a blender and blend till very fine.You can also put the biscuits in a zipper
and use a rolling pin to crush the biscuits till very soft and fine.Take some few pieces at a time
until finished.
3. In a mixing bowl,beat butter and sugar with a hand mixer until creamy,light and fluffy.
4. Add in eggs one at a time,beating well after each addition.
5. Pour in the fine Marie biscuits and mix till well combined.
6. Next,divide the batter into two portions.Add cocoa powder to one portion and the other
leave plain.Each portion sub-divide into another half portion.Use 4 small bowls to measure
into equal portions.So,you got four portions now.Two small bowls of plain batter and two
small bowls of cocoa batter.Steam to four layers.
7. Grease a 6 cm x 6 cm round tray or 7 cm x 7 cm round or square baking tin.If using non-stick,no need to grease the tray.
8. Prepare your steamer ready.Let the water boil first.Then pour in the first layer of plain batter or
chocolate batter (whichever you want first) into the baking pan..Then after steaming for 6 minutes,pour in the second layer. (alternate colours) till all four layers are used up.After
the last layer,cover with alluminium foil and steam for 10 minutes.
best served wth coffee or tea.
