| Mini cake in sandwich |
Some years back, my colleague told me that she made cakes in sandwich maker. It was a quite unique thing for me but i soon forgot about it as neither I had neither sweet-tooth nor sandwich maker.
Fast forward to a few months back, my khala gave me a sandwich maker. I soon grow fond of this new gift and enjoyed making different sandwiches in that.
One day out of blue, I remembered my colleague my colleague and thought of sandwich maker mini cakes. I did not have the recipe so I searched for it on YouTube, my most favorite search engine.
To my surprise I found many recipes but the lazy lady in me wanted the easiest and the simplest one. I try only those recipes whose ingredients are available at my place.
I finally found the recipe on Tiffin Box YouTube channel.
Ingredients are as follow:
- Egg : 1
- Sugar:1/4 cup
- Flour: 1/2 cup
- Milk: 2 Tblspn
- Oil: 1/4 cups
- Baking powder: 1/2 tsp
- Vanilla essence: 1 tsp
I would recommend everyone who likes to cook or in particular baking, should invest in standard measuring cups and spoons (which I did not have that time). To overcome this, I used same cup to measure all the ingredients. First I whisked sugar and egg together as I did not have beater by my side. I was a good workout but after 10 mins of whisking and losing couple of calories , I had the most fluffiest of egg and sugar foam. Afterwards I added rest of the ingredients. I did not use vanilla essence, which to me did not really matter as due to whisking the egg smell was nearly all gone.
I put four table spoonful of batter on each side and cooked them. Recipe calls for 5 mins, however you should check your sandwich maker as each one has its own timing. I cooked them for 8-10 mins as I like crispy edges. I gave these cakes a marble look by taking a little batter and adding in a 2 tablespoon of milk with 1 tablespoon of coco powder
My mother and my little brother are my biggest critic and supporter. They both liked the cake.
So its mom approved.
Do give it a try.
