Instructions
0 Preheat oven to 385 F. 1 Add eggs and sugar to a bowl. Whisk on high until it's pale, creamy and thick. The volume should triple (about 8-10 minutes). 2 Add sifted flour and baking powder to the batter a little bit at a time and fold it in until you've added all the flour. If you want to, add vanilla essence and fold it in (see notes). 3 Transfer the batter to a greased mould until 3/4 full. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until fully baked and golden brown. 4 Let it cool for 5 minutes before gently removing the cakes. I used chopsticks to flip and remove the cakes. Serve as is or coat with chocolate. Chocolate Coating 5 Add chopped chocolate to a bowl and microwave at 20 seconds interval until the chocolate fully melts-- make sure to stir in between. 7 Dip half of the top part of each cake in the melted chocolate and place on a parchment paper to set. Add crushed peanuts on top. 8 Serve once the chocolate sets. Enjoy!View original recipe
