Oreo marble butter cake ~ 奥利奥牛油蛋糕


I have seen quite a number of Oreo cookies recipes on the internet and was curious about the taste and texture of crushed Oreo cookies in a cake.  So the only way to satisfy my curiosity is therefore to give it a try.   It wasn't a disappointment at all as the cake turned out soft and moist and I'm sure that it will be a favourite amongst kids and adults alike!





Oreo marble butter cake ~奥利奥牛油蛋糕 
          (adapted from  'here' )
Ingredients (A)
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 80 gm caster sugar
  • 1/3 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla (I used vanilla paste)
  • 200 gmm unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 160 gm plain flour (sifted)
  • 100 ml milk
  • 1 pack Oreo cookies (137 gm)
(B)     4 egg whites
           90 gm caster sugar (original 100 gm)

Method
  1. Remove cream from Oreo cookies, blend till fine, set aside.
  2. Using a handheld whisk, beat egg yolks, salt and sugar till thick and creamy.
  3. Beat in butter cubes and vanilla paste till well combined.
  4. Sift in flour, alternating with the  milk, mix well.  Set aside.
  5. In another clean bowl, beat egg whites till foamy, gradually add in sugar and beat till soft peaks, but not dry.
  6. Fold in egg whites in three batches, but not to overmix.
  7. Weigh out 250 gm of  batter and mix in the fine Oreo cookies.
  8. Scoop spoonfuls of plain batter, alternating with Oreo batter into a lined 5.1/2 x 9.1/2 inch loaf pan.  Use a skewer to give the batter a swirl.
  9. Bake in a preheated oven @ 160 deg.C for 45 to 50 mins.  Test with a skewer till it comes out clean.
  10. Let cool in pan for 10 mins. before overturning it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Char Siew Pau ~ 蒸叉烧包

I have been itching to try out a Pau recipe and vaguely remember that I did make it once, long, long ago.  So I  got hold of my old file of recipes and finally managed to retrieve it.  I did it recently and must say that I'm satisfied with the result.  The texture of the Pau was soft and a bit chewy, wholesome and filling too.  Naturally, they didn't look so nice and round like the ones sold in the dim sum restaurants, but nonetheless I think homemade ones can be just as delectable as well.

Pumpkin Carrot Cake

I have never tried baking cakes with raw pumpkin and was glad when Amy Beh shared a recipe for Pumpkin Carrot Cake.  The moist cake tasted good, the sweet pumpkin blended well with the slightly sourish cranberries.  I have reduced the sugar somewhat and tweaked the method too.  I'll be baking this again for the Chinese New Year.  This cake was an instant hit with my family ....... Try it!
