I have been busy working on my first eBook entitled “Dim Sum & Desserts” for the past few months. Very happy that it is in the final proofreading now, soon it will be released. Here is the cover for the eBook, do you like it?
Time flies, I can’t believe that MaomaoMom.com is turning ONE pretty soon as a bilingual blog. Thank YOU all for your continuous support. I will have a giveaway of InstantPot electric pressure cooker (my favorite pressure cooker) as a small token of my appreciation, starting on this coming Sunday, June 9th at 2 PM. Please come by and join me to celebrate.
When I saw this cake at jocooks.com, its name intrigued me. It’s amazing that only one batter turns into a three-layered cake, with a layer of custard in the middle! The trick for this cake is to make the batter very thin, similar to a crepe batter. I have modified the original recipe with less butter and sugar, and it turned out great.

Cook time: 60 minutes
Level: Medium
Yield: 16 servings
Ingredients:
1: 4 extra large egg whites, ½ tsp white vinegar (or 1/3 tsp cream of tartar), ¼ cup sugar (60g);
2: 4 extra large egg yolks, ¼ cup sugar (60g);
3: 1/3 cup butter melted, 1 tsp vanilla extract;
4: 3/4 cup +1 tbsp cake & pastry flour (110g);
5: 2 cups lukewarm milk (478g);
6: 1 tsp butter, softened;

Directions:
1: Preheat oven at 310F/155C. Grease an 8 x 8-inch baking dish with 1 tsp butter and set aside.

4: Slowly add warm milk (Picture 7) and beat at low speed until well mixed (Picture 8). Add 1/3 of the beaten egg white into the yolk and flour mixture (Picture 9) and fold with a spatula until mixed. Then pour it back to the remaining 2/3 of the beaten egg whites (Picture 10). Gently fold with a spatula to mix very well (Picture 11).

Ingredient #4, did you mean “baking powder” instead of 1tsp cake flour? Don’t you need baking powder for this one?
I absolutely loved all your cakes, they are great! May I suggest a Kitchen Aid Electric Stand Mixer instead of a handheld mixer? I have been using the Artisan model for the last 5 years. It is the most useful appliance in my kitchen.
Thank you.
No, this means that total flour is (3/4 cup + 1 tbsp)=110g. No baking powder is needed.
You can absolutely use Kitchen aid electric stand mixer.
what is cake and pastry flour? Do I mix cake flour and pastry flour? how to mix?
it’s low protein flour, ideal for baking.
