Mini Molasses Sponge Cake

Recipe

Ingredients
2 eggs
25g caster sugar
45g molasses
1/4tsp salt
70g cake flour
15g milk
15g veg. oil

Steps:
1. Preheat oven to 190C.
2. Lined small cupcake tray with paper casing and set aside.
3. Use a cake mixer to whisk the eggs, salt, sugar and molasses until light and fluffy. (Do the ribbon test: Use the whisk to spoon some batter, drip some into the mixing bowl. If it stay visible for a while then this is the right stage.)
4. Shift the cake flour into the cake batter in 3 portions and fold in. (I used hand whisk to fold in.)
5. Mix milk and oil together and fold in lightly into the batter until well combined.
6. Spoon batter into cupcake tray until 90% full.
7. Bake in preheated oven for 8-10mins.
8. Remove cakes from tin and cool on a wire rack.
9. Dust with icing powder and serve.

Note: You can replace molasses with honey, maple syrup or golden syrup.

Vanilla Sponge Cake

This is my last minutes bakes for my sister and her sweet princess visit. I baked a simple sponge cake and sandwich it with strawberry jam. So glad that she love it. :) You can find the recipe from 'Kitchen Corner' blog here or from Ytower.
