Making Honeycomb/Beehive cake

Chinese New Year always inspired sisters and me to put more efforts in baking. 

There was no exception for 2016 Chinese New Year. 

Therefore, we decided to bake honeycomb/beehive cake (蜂巢糕). We used to have this dark color, spongy pattern and caramelized flavor cake when we grew up. So nostalgic!!!.

Here's how we did it.


 Ingredients:
1. 45g butter
2. 70g flour
3. 130g caramelized sugar
4. 80g condensed milk
5. 4 eggs
6. 120g water
7. 1 teaspoon of baking soda

 1st step: making caramelized sugar. Put the sugar in the pan with low heat. Stirring all the times until golden brown  
 2nd step: put the butter in the hot caramelized sugar
3rd step: Adding condensed milk in the hot caramelized sugar too and mix well
4th step: Next, transferring the mixture of caramelized sugar, butter and condensed milk into mixing bowl. After that, adding flour, baking soda, water, eggs and beat it. 
That's how it looked like when mixing everything 
5th step: pouring the mixture into the cake pan and steamed it for 40 minutes. Before pouring, remembered to apply a thin layer of cooking oil on the whole cake pan to prevent the cake sticked on the cake pan.
It's done after 40 minutes 
Doesn't look bad right? It had bee hive structure. I believed we make it successfully 


It's a good stuff I tell you. It's so soft and strong caramelized flavor. We even finished it within 1 1/2 days. 

Let's try it. I got the recipe from H.E.R.E (but in Mandarin version)
