Ingredients:
500 grams Flour
500 grams Fine sugar
300 cc 7-Up
3 Eggs
2 Egg yolks
NB. You will need a steamer and special moulds for Bolu Kukus.
Preparations:
1. Cut about 30 layers of baking paper (or use small paper cake forms) to cover the moulds.
2. Mix the sugar and the eggs until it’s raised.
3. Add the 7-Up and continue mixing.
4. Add the flour and keep mixing for another 5-7 minutes.
5. Prepare the steamer and heat it with high flame until the water is boiling. Put the mixture into the mould. Fill up 3/4 of a mould; close the lid and steam for 20 minutes.
DO NOT OPEN THE LID TOO SOON
It takes 4-5 times to get the whole lot steamed.
TIP: in order to make the cakes more colorful, take a part of the dough and mix it with dye or use cocoa. Combine the plain dough with the colored mixture when pouring it in the moulds.
Sounds delicious! I will try it, thanks for sharing! x
