Cooking Instructions

Hide images
step 1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees (180 degrees C).
step 2
In a mixing bowl, cream together softened Salted Butter (1 cup), Caster Sugar (1/3 cup), and Palm Sugar (1 1/4 cups) until the gula melaka is well dissolved and the mixture is fluffy.
step 3
Crack in Eggs (3) one at a time. Then, drizzle in Pandan Extract (1/2 tsp). Make sure all the ingredients are at room temperature to prevent the mixture from curding.
step 4
Fold in half of the dry ingredients which consist of All-Purpose Flour (2/3 cup) and Baking Powder (1/4 tsp). Then, slowly drizzle in Milk (4 Tbsp) while the mixer is running.
step 5
Fold in the rest of the All-Purpose Flour (2/3 cup) and Baking Powder (1/4 tsp) and mix until it is well-combined. Stop mixing once there are no visible flour pockets.
step 6
Transfer into a 7-inch square pan that is greased and lined with parchment paper.
step 7
Bake it in the oven for about 55-60 minutes.
step 8
Let it cool for a while and invert onto a rack to cool completely.
step 9
Slice accordingly to your preference and serve.
