3 Colors Butter Cake


This is the first time we bake cake using the oven toaster. It turn out to be very successful.

The butter cake is made using the creaming method, in which the butter(185g) and caster sugar(1cup) are first beaten till light and fluffy to incorporate air into the butter. Eggs(3) are then added gradually creating an emulsion, following by 1 tsp of vanilla essense, 250g self-raising flour and 1/2 cup of milk.

We added some fun into the cake. The batter was divided into 3 bowls; one bowl added in 1 tbsp of coco powder and another bowl added 1 tsp of pandan paste. Spoon each color batter into a greased baking tin alternatively.

Pre-head the toaster oven for 10 minutes then bake the the cake for 45 minutes.

The butter cake is very rich and moist.
