Kek Marble Trio (CMG)

Jumaa Mubaraq to everyone....

How far will you go to help a friend? Different people may have different level of helpfulness. I think I once came under the level extreme. Why did I say that? Because I can still remember mak saying this to me....

Kau ni kalau pasal kawan, sanggup jual kepala....
Translation : For the sake of a friend, you're just too willing to sell your head (hihihi.. betul ke mama translate ni? Ala belasah je la!!! Ada korang kesah? Muahahaha...)

Well, to me, whenever someone asked for help, and if I am able to help, I will try to help till the maximum I can go. I'm just happy to see others happy with the little deeds that I had done. But then, I don't really like if the tiny deeds I had done, are to be mentioned over and over again or if being repaid. A sweet little THANK YOU is more than enough for me, to show that my effort is appreciated......And to all of you my dear visitors, I thank you for dropping by my blog. Thank you for your good deeds.....

RECIPE....I've tried this recipe last Sunday to bring over to my brother's house, the day he and mom were flying for Madinah. Just too happy to see the eagerness of my nephew and nieces to get their share. Makes all the effort worthwhile! If only their house is nearby, Allah knows what else I'd be baking! Hahaha...

Came across this recipe a long time ago but didn't try it out until that day. Why did I wait that long? I don't have the answer. But my thanks goes to the famous chef of Sedenak, Mr Mat Gebu. Bila sebut Mat Gebu, terasa macam nak pantun pulak...tapi pantun yang tak boleh dibawak masuk periksa ye... nayo kantoi....

KEK MARBLE TRIO
Source : Cik Mat Gebu

Ingredients :

300g butter
280g flour*
1 tablespoon milk powder*
1 teaspoon baking*(sift together all ingredients marked *)
5 large eggs
1 tablespoon ovalette (cake stabiliser)
250g castor sugar
50ml fresh milk
1 1/2 teaspoons chocolate emulco
1 teaspoon strawberry emulco
1 /2 teaspoon rose essence
a tint of pink coloring

METHOD :

1. Prepare an 8 x 8 x 3 inches cake tin. Grease the sides with butter and a bit of flour. Line the base with greaseproof paper.
2. Beat butter till pale in color. I beat manually. Add in flour, a little at a time till all flour are used and mixture is well mixed. Set aside.
3. In a mixing bowl (clean and dry), beat eggs and ovalette.
4. Add in sugar, a little at a time and continue beating on high speed till mixture is light and fluffy, like the chiffon mixture.
5. Reduce the speed and add in the butter and flour mixture, a little at a time.
6. Pour in the fresh milk and rose essence.
7. Divide the mixture into 3 equal portions. Add 1 portion with chocolate emulco. Another portion with strawberry emulco and a tint of pink coloring. Leave 1 portion plain.
8. Spoon 2 tablespoons of plain mixture onto the middle of the cake tin. Top it with 2 spoonful of pink mixture, followed by the chocolate mixture. Repeat the process until all the mixture are used up.
9. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 C for 40 to 45 minutes.

Note : Oven temperature and baking time may differ.
Feedback : Mak Chu, Mak Ngah (my sister in law), my nephew and nieces liked the cake very much. Will that convince you guys to try? We'll see... *wink* *wink*

Have a nice and safe weekend everyone. Take care of yourself and each other...
