Cocoa Butter Cake


http://www.tastebook.com/recipes/3359466-Cocoa-Butter-Cake











I came back from work, thinking to relax and watch some TV programmes when my son came asking me to bake a cake for supper. Looking through those recipes that I plan to make, I decided to bake this Cocoa Butter Cake since I have all the ingredients readily. Just within an hour, the aroma of butter filled the whole kitchen and the kids can't wait to gobble them up.

Ingredients

  • 250g cake flour
  • 2tsp double action baking powder
  • 4tbsp milk
  • 250g butter
  • 160g sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1tsp vanilla essence
  • 2tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp coffee powder
  • 10g melting chocolate

Directions 

1. Sift cake flour and baking powder in a bowl.
2. Beat butter with the sugar until pale and fluffy.
3. Add in egg one at a time, add in vanilla, mixing well.
4. Fold in flour and milk, combine well.
5. Mix 1/3 portion of cake mixture with cocoa powder & coffee powder.
6. Pour cocoa mixture into cake tin and follow by cake mixture.
7. Put melting chocolate in microwave and keep stirring till all melted. Pipe line across top, then use chopstick to go across the line.
8. Bake in preheated oven at 180C for 40mins or when skewer comes out clean.

Notes

You can use a kitchen paper towel to press in the centre of cake to flatten it, so it will look nicer when cutting into squares.
