Today I decided to bake a butter sponge as past few days i always have a box of banana cake on the table for the littlest to snack on. Yesterday we finished and I didnt baked anything. He was asking for more cake. So I decided to bake something more original and not those heaty chocolatey pastries. Went back to my bookmarks, I decided to bake this Butter Sponge!
Recipe calls for steam bake and also to melt butter over stove top and mix in flour. Reminds me of the cooked-flour method for chiffon. I felt that the cake is soft, moist and spongy. And the mild vanilla flavour is so yummy!
Cut them into bitesize and store in airtight. Its gonna last for another 2 days maximum before its all gone! Should try baking this at home for tea break! It goes so well with a cup of coffee or tea! For now, I will keep this recipe and maybe explore changing the flavour soon! ❤️
