Magic Cake


I've been seeing magic cakes everywhere on the internet and the recipe intrigued me that I just had to try it!  It's so quick & simple to make and I adore how the batter magically separates into top sponge cake layer and custard cake layer below.  And best of all it tastes YUMMY!  I've also found that using icing sugar gives me a better rise in the sponge cake and also a firmer custard. :)  And remember to grease your pan with butter! 

The recipe i've used is this:-

Watch her video will give you an idea how to fold in the eggwhites. :)

Her blog is in spanish but there is nothing that Google Translate can't translate right? :D

HAPPY BAKING! :)

MIA.. and now posting for documentation..

Been too lazy to blog but I did bake lots..although some are not documented.  Lately I would just post the photos onto my own FB account so that I have an idea what I have baked.  However,  recently I had to refer back to this blog to check my older postings because I can't recall.
