Ice cream pie (apam malaysia)

Ice Cream Pie..( apam malaysia)

This recipe of steamed cake (apam) is from my mom when she was still with BAKAT ( it's a club of army wives). She got quite a number of recipes but my father accidently burnt them few years back when he did the spring cleaning.. Only few recipes she can remember and this is one of them may be because of its easy to remember..I used to make this when I was 10 years old but with her help of course..and I called it '1234 cake' from its measurement..

1 cup ice cream soda/ seven up
2 cups caster sugar
3 cups all purpose flour
4 eggs
rose flavour
red colouring ( or whatever you like..green, blue, purple or even can substitute with chocolate paste)
paper as mould ( 10cmx15cm paper to be shaped like ice cream cone or 'kacang puti' cone)

Method:

Heat up the steamer. Arrange the paper mould into the hole.












Beat the sugar and eggs until light and fluffy. Gradually add flour alternately with ice cream soda. Lastly add a dash of rose flavouring. Take about quarter part of batter and add red colouring and mix well.









Take a tablespn full of plain batter into the mould followed by a teaspoon of red batter. Steam for about 15 minutes. Serve hot or cooled..

Kuih Seri Muka

Kuih Seri Muka

Traditional Malay Kuih is yet another challenge to me because I seldom make them. I mostly buy them though..(because I can get variety of nice Malay kuih then..) I got this recipe from my neighbor in Puchong, kak Mah and find it very useful cause I used to make them without any proper recipe before...and in the end sometimes it turned out ok but sometimes not. And to my friend Kay, I think you should try this out for your sweet Iman..

So here it is:

Ingredient A -for the base:

500g glutinous rice (pulut) - soak with water for few hours
2 cups coconut milk
pinch of salt

For the top batter, Put all into blender:
2 cups coconut milk
1 cup flour
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup pandan extract ( 2 pieces of pandan leaf + 1/4 cup of water- blend together)
green colouring

Note: After getting good comment from my fellow baker friend, Chef C, here is how I make the pandan extract. I use 2 pieces of pandan leaves cut into small pieces, put in the blender then add 1/4 cup of water and switch on.. Then strain them and there you'll get the green colour pandan extract cause I don't like to use the artificial flavour that you can easily get from baking store.

Method:

Mix well glutinous rice, coconut milk and salt. Steam over medium heat until cooked. Brush some oil in an 8 inches tray and pour in cooked glutinous rice. Press with a banana leaf ( I use small plastic )until very firm. Blend green layer ingredients together in a blender or food processor and strain for several times. Pour topping onto glutinous rice and steam for 20 - 25 minutes over low heat until it sets. Leave kuih to cool completely before cutting it . Serve and enjoy..

Cheese Tart and cheese cake?

Lemon Cheesecake


There are so many version of cheese cake recipes that we can find in the internet. The way of baking also might have slight differ to suits one needs or liking. I have tried few cheese cake recipes either from internet, books or friends just to find the best and as for me the easiest and the cheapest indeed.. Of all that I finally so called 'stick' to eat as it is easy, tasty and the most important is my kids love it..

I used this recipe to make 'old fashion' cheese cake that use cookie crumbs at the bottom or as filling for the tarts. I usually add blueberry, strawberry or lemon pie filling that can easily get from the baking shop to enhance the cheezy taste of cream cheese. I will make the cheese 'batter' and fill in a ready made tart shell according to customer's request or my kid's favourite.


For friends and whoever interested to taste my kinda creation, here they are...


If wanna make old fashion cheese cake, for the base:

200g graham / marie biscuits ( crushed)
100g butter (melted)


Position an oven shelf in the middle of the oven. Preheat the oven to fan 150Celc. Line the base of a 9inch springform cake tin with parchment paper. For the crust, melt the butter in a medium pan. Stir in the biscuit crumbs and sugar so the mixture is evenly moistened. Press the mixture into the bottom of the pan and bake for 10 minutes. Cool on a wire rack while preparing the filling.

For the filling:

500g cream cheese ( I usually use Philadelphia & at room temp)
250g caster sugar
150g double cream
1 lemon
5 eggs

Method:

1. Beat cream cheese and sugar until well incorporated.
2. Add egg one at the time. Beating well after each addition.
3. Add in lemon juice and stir well.
4. Whip the cream and slowly stir into the mixture.
5. Pour into the tin with cookie base.
6. Bake using 'steam bath' techniques for 45-50 mins at 150 deg cels
7. Let it cool on the rack and once cooled, chill until it set ( about 8 hours or overnight)
8. Run a round-bladed knife around the sides of the tin to loosen any stuck edges. Unlock the side, slide the cheesecake off the bottom of the tin onto a plate, then slide the parchment paper out from underneath.







Note: Steam Bath is a techniques where the baking tin wrap with aluminium foil and put inside tray filled with hot water. Bake according to suggested time.





Mini Cheesetarts - lemon or blueberry



I use only the filling to be filled inside mini tart shells either alone or with a spoon of blueberry, strawberry or lemon pie filling.







Mini lemon Cheesetarts and with lemon filling on top



Another choices - strawberry, kiwi, lemon and blueberry filling...



As for tart shell recipe,


The ingredients

I always love green apple especially Granny Smith. It's not too sour but not as sweet as red apple. I love the crunchy, juicy and I can eat them raw, make it a juice or even add in the cooking. I have never tried before this recipe and wanna give a try..and yes I like the taste exactly. The sour taste of the applesauce reduced the sweetness of the cake. Its a healthy cake as well because I used brown sugar instead of white sugar and also honey. For those who love apples and not-so-sweet cake, you will like this cake as much as I am. Should give it a try..

Applesauce Cake


3 cups flour-spooned and leveled
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground cardamom
1 cup butter (room temp)
2 cups brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
2 large eggs
2 cups basic applesauce

1. Preheat oven to 180deg celcs. Whisk together dry ingredients. Set aside.

2. In another bowl, with an electric mixer, beat butter, brown sugar and honey until light and fluffy. Add egg, one at a time, beating until combined. With mixer on low speed gradually add dry ingredients. Beat until just combined. Beat in appplesauce.

3. Grease 9" tube pan or any of your choice. Spoon batter into pan, smooth top and arrange apple slices on top. Bake 45-50 mins or until tooth pick inserted in the middle comes out clean.



4. Cool on wire rack.


Basic applesauce
2 lb apples( peel, core and cut into thin slices)
1 cinnamon stick
3-4 tblspn sugar
3/ cup water
2 tsp freshly squeesed lemon juice

In a large saucepan, combine apples with cinnamon stick, sugar and water. With a medium heat, bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer. Stirring occasionally, until apples tender. 30-35 mins.( IF sauce begins to stick to the bottomof the pan, add 2-3 tblspn more water)

oreo butter cake

Oreo Butter Cake

225g cake flour

1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
85g unsalted butter, cut into pieces
170g sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup(240ml) nonfat unsweetened yogurt
1 tsp vanilla essence
80g Oreo cookies, roughly crushed
Whole Oreo cookies for decorating
