orange moist cake

hi and assalamualaikum!

last 3 days, i tried to bake a whole-round orange cake and i failed. T_T

but it was my fault (sbb gelojoh), i put the icing while the cake still warm

and it melted! so of course it spoilt the cake! huhu

but never mind..

i made a new one..

cupcakes version!

haha

(ok sebab senang)

easy to make, easy to consume!

no wonder people nowaday prefer to cupcakes rather than one big whole cake

it becomes a trend.. =D

ok, today i went to pasar malam

just to buy these oranges

(10 biji RM5 sahaja ok) =D

Ingredients:
300gm butter
300gm sugar (u can reduce the quantity if u dislike sweet)
5 eggs (guna 4 biji putih ONLY okie)
320gm flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice (I used 2 whole orange water extraction)
2 tablespoons sunquick (optional)
1 teaspoon orange paste (I used orange flavor)
a drop of orange / yellow dies (if you like)
lemon zest (parutan kulit oren)

Ways:
1. Beat the butter & sugar until light and fluffy with the highest speed
2. Add eggs one-by-one
3. After fluffy, add flour that has been sifted with baking powder
4. Mix well & finally put all kinds of juices & bake! (oven with 180 dgree celsius for about half an hour)

after parut kulit dia, perah oren tu to get its juices! XD

beat until fluffy. fluffy means white and it wont drop if u upside down the bowl. =)

after i put all the juices, orange flavor, dies and orange emulco

put about 2/3 of the cup

my favourite cake ever.. =')

this is ganache.. how to make it?

u must have...

300 gm whipping cream/evaporated milk
500 gm cooking chocolate (chopped fine)
30 gm butter

ways:

1) Chop the chocolate to small pieces.
2) Heat cream/milk untill boil.(double boil it) then lift.
3) Put the chocolate in the cream/milk and stir until chocolate is melted.
4) Let it cool down for several hours before use.

orange cake tastes nice when combined with chocolate.. =) (sebenarnya malas nk buat topping.=P)

make them fully covered..

and tadaaa!! they look simple but seriously they taste nice! haha try it! =D

selamat mencuba.
