TORT A CAKE RECIPES

Steps:

• Line molds with paper liners, but if you don’t have you, you can use wax paper and grease it lightly and set aside. Separate eggs and whisk egg yolks until smooth and set aside the egg whites for another recipe, such as Angel food cake, Meringue, Lengua de Gato, Sylvanas, and others.
• Preheat your oven at 350F.
• Boil the coconut juice and sugar over low heat for 5 minutes and add in the star anise to infuse in the syrup at the last minute, set aside to cool.
• In a bowl, sift over the flour, baking powder, and salt together until well mixed and set aside.
• In a mixing bowl, cream the butter until smooth and pale and add in the egg yolks and mix for a minute.
• Add the oil, coconut syrup, and condensed milk while continuously mixing.
• I don’t want to waste the condensed milk left in the can, so I pour the fresh milk into the can and scrape all sides and stir, then add into the mixing bowl.
• Lastly, add the flour mixture and whisk until incorporated, but don’t overbeat the batter.
• Pour the batter into the prepared molds, or divide the batter using an ice cream scoop to yield a dozen of Cebu Torta Mamon.
• Bake in a preheated oven at 350F for about 18-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
• Let it cool just enough you can handle it, then brush with margarine or butter lightly on top and sprinkle with caster or refined sugar on top and let it cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Heat Oven to 350 and grease 9x13 pan. You will need another bowl for left over custard.
• In a large pot on medium low heat melt butter, add your milk and water. As that is melting, mix butter cake batter as directed on box and pour into cake pan.
• Mix sugar, eggs and cornstarch and set to the side. When butter is completely melted add your egg mixture and whisk until pudding like consistency, making sure to stir bottom of pot. DO NOT BOIL, the custard will burn very easily. Turn off heat stir in vanilla. Remove from heat.
• Ladle booyee over cake batter evenly to cover do not overfill cake pan. You will have a good bit left over. Bake cake as directed.(I like my cake a little gooey so I do not bake quite as long as directed. Taking it out 2 or 3 minutes before done)
• After cake is removed from oven and cooled for about 20 Minutes cut into squares, place on plate then ladle one booyea-custard over baked cake. This cake is a little labor intensive but well worth it. Refrigerate leftovers, if you have any.
