Make 21st birthday cake for boy

Step 1: Prepare the dough

This simple cake recipe has no baking powder. But you can rest assured that the cake will hatch evenly when the eggs are perfectly whipped. There are many tiny air bubbles in the egg. When exposed to high temperatures, they will expand to inflate the cake.

First, you prepare the ingredients with the correct volume according to the instructions. Then, mix the flour and cornstarch until you get the perfect mixture.

Next, you need to carefully separate the egg yolks and egg whites into two separate bowls.

Next, you need to add vanilla, cooking oil, and fresh milk to the egg yolk bowl. Then, mix this mixture well to form a golden paste.

Vanilla is added to make the cake more fragrant. You should choose natural vanilla, and avoid the kind with chemical ingredients because, after baking, they will have a bitter taste.

Divide the flour mixture into 3-4 parts and then add slowly to the beaten egg yolks. Continue to mix the mixture until they are combined.

You should put the egg white in a deep bowl and use the eggbeater to whip it. Make sure your eggbeater is not sticky with any fat (grease) or liquid (water, milk).

Add salt and beat for about 1 minute and then continue to add lemon juice. You turn on the eggbeater, gradually increase the speed until the air bubbles become smaller, then add the sugar.

You divide the sugar into 3 parts, every 20 seconds for each part of the sugar to beat with the egg whites until all. You need to beat until you get the desired mixture patiently.

Add the beaten egg whites and mix with the yolk mixture. When the mixture turns light beige, it can be baked with an electric cooker.

Step 2: Bake the Cake

Baking with a rice cooker compared to an oven has the advantage that the internal temperature of the pot is stable, helping to prevent the cake from falling, denting, and retaining moisture without fear of drying.

You should cut stencils into circles to line the bottom of the pot to prevent the dough from sticking. If you feel the heat in your rice cooker is high, you can line more parchment paper around the pot.

Heat the rice cooker for about 10 minutes and then slowly pour the flour and egg mixture into it. You should turn on the power to heat the rice cooker when starting to whip the whites. After the dough mixing operations are complete, the rice cooker is also ready to bake.

Slowly pour the flour and egg mixture into the pot.

You turn on the pot to “Cook” mode to bake the cake; when the pot turns to “Warm” mode, leave the cake in the pot for another 3 minutes. Then re-enable the “Cook” button. In total, the cake will be baked by pressing Cook-Warm 3 times like that.

You need to avoid opening the pot’s lid while baking because it can lead to the cake falling due to sudden temperature changes.

After 3 times of cooking, wait at the “Warm” level for 10 minutes, then when the cake is thoroughly cooked, open the pot to check if the cake is made with a skewer. When skewered, the skewer is dry and does not stick to the cake, and then the cake has met the requirements.

When the cake is completely cooked, you leave it in the cooker for 5 minutes to wait for the cake to shrink and separate from the wall of the cooker. You take the cake out and put it on a rack/tray with an opening so that it cools and doesn’t get steamed.

You check the appearance, and if the cake meets the following conditions, you have succeeded:

The cake is spongy, soft, evenly expanded, not dented, pitted, and not dry.

The cake core is bright yellow, after baking, there is no fishy smell of eggs.
The faint, sweet aroma of flour, eggs, and vanilla blend together.
You can also add cocoa powder, matcha powder to create a cake with a new flavor, matching the taste of the person expecting the cake.
