Rich butter cake

My family fancy richer taste and it gotta be rich chocolate cake (their fav) , rich durian cake and even rich butter cake! Everything have to be added with a rich to entice them.

This time, I did not bake rich butter cake on purpose for them but someone else. It's part of a reciprocation and appreciation for that someone who succour in times when I needed help.


Recipe (makes 15cm cake)

  • 140g butter, softened to room temperature
  • 3 eggs, separate egg yolks and white
  • 130g brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 160g all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp cream of tartar
  • 25ml milk
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder


  1. Preheat oven to 170C. Grease and line a 15cm cake pan.
  2. Beat butter and sugar till light and fluffy. Add in egg yolk one at a time till each addition is well-corporated.
  3. Add in milk and vanilla extract.
  4. Sift in flour and baking powder to the mixture. Mix well.
  5. Beat egg white with cream of tartar till soft peaks form. Fold into the butter mixture, DO NOT OVERMIX!
  6. Scoop out half of the cake batter into another bowl.
  7. Dissolve cocoa powder with adequate amount of hot water till you get a smooth paste. Add in the chocolate paste into one of the divided cake batter.
  8. Alternate the adding of normal & chocolate-added cake batter into the cake pan.
  9. Bake for 45mins or till the skewer comes out clean.
