yes self raising flour has baking powder in it..no need to add again
Infact I* am* going to try the cooks.com recipe right now..
huh? u mean not ur cousin's recipe?
Re: microwave cake recipe pls- Urgent!!!
u din mention salt in the recipe... but many ppl put that in the recipe.. but i dun think i wud like to put some unless its absolutely essential.. do u think i shud perhaps put a pinch??? gosh i mst b givin u a headache with all these qs na... LOLZZZZZ
Re: microwave cake recipe pls- Urgent!!!
I don't have cocoa powder that's why I am trying the other one.. a pinch of salt should be enough, all tv chefs add that (yup that's the source of my limited baking knowledge..hehe)
another tip from tv for beginners like us.. beat the egg whites separately till they are fluffy and don't drop off the spoon.. this will help keep the cake soft.

din undrstnd this?? ok one more qs... dumb alert :D ............. i dun have a hand mixer or blender at home... idunno if i will get the same fluffy cake mixture like they show on tv. i just have a whisk... shud i just cancel my plan .. sniff :(
Re: microwave cake recipe pls- Urgent!!!
whisk is ok too.. just separate the egg white and egg yolk and beat the white only part with whisk till it takes this form
and also mix dry ingredients separately and wet ones separately then combine them. Once you have added the dry ingredients to wet ones do not beat/whisk it, just fold it in the mixture with light hand.
p.s: mine is in the microwave right now.. of it turns out well try it, otherwise just go buy one..heheh
such awsum tips yaar… i will def whisk the white seperately but wot abt the yolk when do i put the yolk mixture?? thankssss

Re: microwave cake recipe pls- Urgent!!!

Re: microwave cake recipe pls- Urgent!!!
btw I just measured, my dish is 9 inches wide and square.. chefs mention the size of cake-mould so I thought I'd let you know in case..
Re: microwave cake recipe pls- Urgent!!!
Just keep an eye on it, the recipe said 10 mins and it was ready in 10 mins..turn the Power of microwave power to High.. I didn't open and check it in-between
yes my husband had it too, he said it was nice. It's a plain cake though..add some icing/whipped cream to make it fancier once it's cooled down.
