Pandan Butter Cake

I saw this recipe again from my favorite home-cooked blogger "Nasi Lemak Lover" and decided to make it a try at home. A very concentrated pandan butter cake. Here's the link to her website Pandan Butter Cake



Can't believe that the taste is just so awesome... and yes, this color is originally from the concentrated pandan juice, and no extra coloring added! It's pure!

Here's the recipe!

Pandan Butter Cake

250g butter
160g sugar
4 eggs
250g cake flour
2tsp of double action baking powder
6tbsp homemade pandan paste (concentrated pandan juice)

1. Sift cake flour and baking powder in a bowl, set aside
2. Beat butter and sugar until pale and fluffy.
3. Add in egg one at a time, mixing well.
4. Fold in flour and pandan paste, combine well.
5. Pour cake mixture into cake tin.
7. Bake in pre-heated oven at 180C for 60mins or skewer came out clean.

To make concentrated pandan juice, blend as much pandan leaves as possible and refrigerate for few days until there's a layer of concentrated pandan juice at the bottom, which looks a lot like "algae". Hehe... And use that part for the very green look of your cake! =) Happy Baking!!
