Disaster Cake (Steamed Cheese Chocolate Cake)

This is my disaster cake. No, it's not a cake that turn out wrong and have to be throw away. In fact, it's delicious which is a relief to me. Though it don't turn out nice when coming out from the steamer. It's like the moon surface, got hills and valley.

I call it a disaster cake because my mixer broke down half way through when creaming the cream cheese. I think it's a nightmare to most bakers. So what should I do? Beat the other ingredients with my hand? No way am I going to do that. Anyway, I don't think I'm able to beat the egg white until fluffy. So what should I do? I choose the easiest way. That is just dump everything in. I'm not so worry that the cake will not turn out right because it's a steam cake, so it should turn out right. Well I was right, it did turn out alright except for the moon like surface.

I got this recipe from Yochana blog - http://auntyyochana.blogspot.com/2008/08/steamed-cheese-chocolate-cake.html. She has lots of nice recipes.




See, it don't look nice. The surface is not smooth. And the marble effect, well I'm not good at that. See what happen to my Hoon Kueh, and now this. But the most important thing is that it taste very nice. Well, I'm going the make this again and again when I change my mixer (it's still under warranty). The cake was all finished the next day.
