Puto Cheese!

It looks like my blog is now turning into a "recipe blog",haha!Well as long as I'm "discovering" and trying out new  recipes I will keep posting it.  Here's a new recipe that I've just tried and it turned out better than I expected.  My husband even asked me to do it the day after I first made it and then now he's asking me again to do it for Sunday,hahaha! So here's the recipe for puto which is a variation of a steamed cake.

Ingredients:

4 cups flour, sifted

2 cups sugar, sifted

2 1/2 tbsp baking powder

1 cup evaporated milk

2 1/2 cups water

1/2 cup butter, melted

1 piece egg, raw

small slices of cheese

4 cups water (for steaming)

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients starting from the flour, sugar,and baking powder then mix well.

2. Add the butter, evaporated milk, egg, water and pandan essence (dissolve the pandan essence in water) then mix all the ingredients thoroughly.

3. Pour the mixture in individual molds

Instead of using a steamer, I baked the puto with my electronic oven at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes but the trick is to put you molds in a bigger pan with water and it just "steams" it while baking.
