Hi Aunty Yochana

Can you advise me for the eggless Mocha Walnut cake, do I have to wait for the mixture to cool before adding in the milk and the rest of the ingredients?

Thanks & regards

Hi Kim.

It's ok to pour in the milk into the mixture, no need to wait for it to cool down. This will hasten the cooling process and then you can mix in the flour and...the end

YOu're right lor...eileen..flour boh liao...so everything flourless today.

This milo layered cake recipe is from the book "Sarawak Layered Cake". Do you have it? If you still want the recipe, let me know.

Make half recipe and then use a 6" square tin. If you want half the height , you can still use the original size of 7" square. The height will be nice for eating.

Hi Lucy,

Is this cake greasy as it contains so much butter?

Is it as greasy as the Steamed Haw Flakes Cake? I have made the haw cake & I find it very greasy. Nobody wanted to eat it.

Thanks & regards,
Enily

Aunty Yochana said...

Hi Enily,

It's a little greasy but not so greasy as the haw flakes. You can cut down the butter if you want to.

Hi Aunty Yochana

I'm a new reader of your blog. Very impressed to see u can bake and cook so many things. I'm going to try this recipe cos it seems quite simple to follow. May I ask is it sweet? Can I leave out the kaya?

Hope u can post more recipes. Thanks!
Kuan

Aunty Yochana said...

Hi Kuan,

I have sweet tooth, so it's ok for me. I've not tried taking off the kaya, perhaps you can try omitting it and see what you get.

hi aunt yochana,

i tried making this cake and it turned out way too moist! it's very very densed! while i'm about to finish my last few layers i can see water in my tin and i think should be the vapour dripping into it. can you please advice?

thanks!

I make this cake yesterday and it turned out very dense (wet) and very very sweet. Too bad, i have to throw away the cake :(

Aunty Yochana said...

Mei,

This cake not so dense and unable to eat type. This cake is very moist cos it's flourless. Yes it's very sweet and only for people with sweet tooth. Most sarawak steam cakes are like these. This cake is for those who loves Milo and sweet stuff, it smells heavenly.
