EXPRESS CHOCOLATE CAKE/ KEK COKLAT EKSPRESS- My Book.......bilingual site?...local Asian food?

EXPRESS CHOCOLATE CAKE

Someone suggested that I have the Malay translation for each recipe I write here. Google translation seemed a good option but the whole meaning of the post was ruined coz it was translated word by word, I guess. Translation seems a good idea. So perhaps I will include a translated version for all entries in future (also for the previous ones). And I would do that myself (no more google translation). And of course, I would also share my experiments in making local dishes.

I used this recipe for cupcakes. There was a small gathering at the cafe and we were given only a day to make the cupcakes. Easypeasy cupcakes indeed. No hassle and no mess.

Some cake recipes call for simple ingredients but the instructions can get pretty laborious sometimes. But this is for us who have little time but lots to cook...

Ingredients

180g flour 180g castor sugar 180 g butter

1 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp soda bicarbonate 2/3 cup sour cream/yoghurt 40 g cocoa powder 2 eggs (large) 1 tsp vanilla

Preheat oven to 170C.

Mix all in a food processor for 2 minutes. (OR in mixer with whip beater, 5 minutes)

Bake for approximately 40 minutes (in an 8inch pan)or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. If making cupcakes, depending on the size of the cups, baking time is shorter. I baked mine for 18 minutes. Cool them. Then I topped them with chocolate ganache.

There you go. Isn't this time-saving?

KEK COKLAT EKSPRES

Bahan:

180g tepung kek 180g gula kaster/halus 180 g butter

1 sudu teh (tsp) serbuk penaik 1/2 (sudu teh soda bicarbonate

2/3 cwn krim masam 40 g serbuk koko 2 telur (AA) 1 sudu teh vanila

Panaskan oven 170C.

Masukkan semua ke dalam food processor selama 2 minit, atau mixer (gunakan whip beater) selama 5 minit.

Bakar dalam loyang bulat 8 inci selama 40 minit (atau bila lidi yang dimasukkan di tengah2 kek tidak basah).

Kalau gunakan paper liner atau souffle cup, Lynn biasanya bakar tidak begitu lama, dalam 18 minit. Itupun bergantung pada saiz dan kepanasan oven. Dah masak, sejukkan. Hias dengan ganache dan hiasan coklat lain. Walaupun kek ni kita pukul semua bahannya sekali, tapi hasilnya tetap lembut. Jangan pukul terlalu lama.
