Steam Moist Chocolate Cupcake 蒸湿润巧克力杯子蛋糕 (中英食谱教程)



I have been trying out my electric steam oven to steam cupcakes but have failed several times as the cupcakes simply did not rise and collapsed instead. Finally, after trying out this steam moist chocolate cake recipe which I found online last week, it worked on my Brandt steam oven, not only did it rise, it exploded somehow and had a cute mushroom head. :D I love its unique look, quite unusual from the neat looking cupcake.  The cupcakes are chocolatey rich, super moist and not too sweet. Great for chocolate lovers like me! :)

Here's the recipe to share with you and since a large amount of cocoa powder is used, a good quality cocoa powder is highly recommended. 




Steam Moist Chocolate Cupcake 
蒸湿润巧克力杯子蛋糕 
(Recipe adapted and modified from My Kitchen Snippets)

Ingredients: 
150g cake flour 
75g cocoa powder (I used Barry Cacao unsweetened cocoa powder)
3/4 tsp baking powder 
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt 
3/4 tsp pure vanilla extract 
2 eggs 
100g brown sugar 
150g corn oil (can be replaced by other cooking oil) 
200g condensed milk 

材料:
150克 低筋面粉 
75克 可可粉(我用Barry Cacao无糖可可粉) 
3/4茶匙 发粉 
3/4茶匙 苏打粉 
3/4茶匙 盐 
3/4茶匙 纯香草精 
鸡蛋2个 
100g 赤糖 
150克 玉米油 (可以用其他食油取代)
200克 炼乳 




Methods 方法:
1. Sieve flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Set it aside. 
1。筛入低粉,可可粉,盐,发粉和苏打粉。备用。



2. Use an electric mixer to beat eggs, sugar and condensed milk over high speed. Beat for 5 minutes or until light in colour. Slow down the mixer and add in the oil. Mix well. 
2。用电动搅拌器以高速度搅打蛋,糖和炼乳大约5分钟或直到颜色变浅。减低速度,加入油搅拌均匀。



3. Add in the flour mixture and mix until combined. 
3。再加入面粉搅拌至混合。 



4. Pour batter into the cupcake moulds, cover the top loosely with aluminium foil and steam it for 30 minutes. Insert a toothpick in the centre of the cupcake and it should come out clean, if not steam for another 5-10 minutes or until fully cooked. (For my Brandt steam oven, I did not cover the top with aluminium foil, the cupcakes were steamed for 45 minutes.)
4。面糊倒入小蛋糕模具,在顶部松松盖上锡纸,蒸大约30分钟。牙签插入蛋糕中心,取出没有粘黏就好了。 如果有粘黏,再蒸5-10分钟或至到熟为止。 (我用Brandt蒸烤箱蒸,没有盖上锡纸,蛋糕蒸45分钟。) 



5. Remove from the steamer and cool on a wiring rack. Enjoy!  
5。从蒸笼取出,冷却后享用。


These cupcakes are so chocolatey and moist! Yum!

所以不是水浴法?我的蛋糕頂部乾乾而且裡面沒有成形:(

Baking Taitai said...

Hi 佳玲,这是蒸蛋糕的食谱, 不是烘烤也不是水浴法。您搞错了,所以会失败!

Hi June, I have not tried the bake method for this recipe thus can't advise you. However, you can always experiment and see if it works. ;)
