拖肥蛋糕

 

我保證這將成為你家中最喜愛的蛋糕食譜。簡單而味美，無論何時何地均能擊中你的味蕾 !

 

材料：

 

無鹽牛油                                  125克 (4 1/2安士)

咖啡糖 (Demerara sugar)             80克 (3安士)

黑糖漿 (Black treacle)                                3湯匙

雞蛋                                                                   3隻

幼砂糖                                            110克 (4安士)

麵粉                                                110克 (4安士)

發粉                                                              1茶匙

糖霜, 裝飾用                                                   適量
 
焗爐預熱至 210C / 425F。

 

20厘米 (8 吋)脫底焗餅模內掃上牛油。

 

將牛油、咖啡糖及黑糖漿放進單柄小鍋，用慢火拌勻至溶合，熄火，待涼備用。

 

雞蛋及幼砂糖一起攪拌至混合拌勻濃稠至奶黃色，以反摺手法加入已篩過的麵粉及發粉，拌勻，以同樣手法摺入已涼卻的牛油/糖漿，拌勻，將這麵糊倒入脫底焗餅盆。

 

放進焗爐中上格焗16-18分鐘至定型，而中心還有少許搖擺不穩，取出待涼至室溫。因為糖漿會流向餅中央，餅中央會稍為下陷，食前灑上糖霜裝飾，可用已打起的淡忌廉或雲呢拿雪糕伴用。

 

註：不要將蛋糕放入雪櫃，因餅會失去濕潤及變得不鬆化，糖漿亦會變硬 !

 

 

Toffee Cake

 

I promise this will be one of the favourite cake recipes in your family for years to come. ‘Simple’ and ‘yummy’ - it hits you in all the right places!

 

Ingredients

 

125g (4 ½oz) unsalted butter
80g (3oz) demerara sugar
3 tablespoons black treacle
3 eggs
110g (4oz) caster sugar
110g (4oz) plain flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
icing sugar to decorate

 

Preheat oven at 210C / 425F.

 

Grease the inside of a 20cm(8 inch) loose bottomed cake tin.

 

Melt butter, demerara sugar together with black treacle on low heat in a small saucepan until it is smooth and well blended, then take off heat and let cool.

 

Whisk the eggs with caster sugar until it is thick and pale. Add in the sifted plain flour together with the baking powder. Fold into the mixture until well blended. Then fold in the cooled treacle/butter until it is well mixed. Pour the mixture into the greased cake tin.

 

Bake on medium high shelf in the preheated oven for 16-18 mins, until set and centre still a little wobbly. Bring out and let it cool to room temperature. The middle will sink a little, as the gooey toffee flows towards the centre of the cake. When ready to serve, sprinkle icing sugar over the top for decoration. Serve with some whipped cream, vanilla ice cream or just eat on its own!

 

Note: Do not put cake in fridge, as sponge will not be moist and airy, and toffee will harden!
