Salam, Kia Ora...

Last week I went to the supermarket to get some milk.  I like to browse the shelves whenever I am at the supermarket, sometimes an easy task of getting milk will take me 30 minutes in there...hehehez.  As I was browsing the chiller section, I saw the Kraft Philadelphia cream cheese reduced to clear for only $1.49 each.  The price was cheap bcos the expiry date was on 9th Feb that was in 6 days time.

I was hesitating whether I should buy the cheese.  In the end I grabbed 1 block...hehehez I just couldn't resist it.  Hesitating bcos I knew that I am still in my lazy mood, not knowing if I'll be able to use it before the expiry date.  Only yesterday that I finally gather some courage and energy to use the cream cheese ^_^.  I've been wanting to eat and bake a chocolate cake for 2 weeks now and decided to finally bake one yesterday.  I like being lazy bcos I don't succumbed to temptation easily I reckon....ahaakkkss.

This recipe has been bookmarked for awhile now.  I thought why not give it a try since I have all the ingredients at home yesterday.  I made the layers quite thick bcos I couldn't be bothered to slave in front of the oven for a long period of time.  I just want the cake to finish quickly and yummiliciously...LOL!!  We really love this cake, the cheese and chocolate flavour blends well together and it wasn't too sweet....yummmzz yummmzz :ppp love it.......

Chocolate Cheese Layer Cake


Ingredients A :
12 egg yolks
6 egg whites
360 gm sugar (I only used 300gm)
300 gm flour Hong Kong (I used standard flour)
2 tablespoons ovalette


Ingredients B :
For Cheese

250 gm cream cheese
4 tablespoons condensed milk
1 teaspoon lemon paste


For Chocolate
250 gm butter
4 tablespoons condensed milk
150 gm cooking chocolate - melted
1 tablespoon chocolate paste


Method :

1. Whisk A until fluffy.
Note : 
- If using hand mixer mix beat all ingredients except flour until fluffy 1st than add flour.
- If using stand mixer like KitchenAid, u can dump all the ingredients together and whisk till fluffy.
2. Divide the batter into 2 equal amount.
3. Beat cream cheese ingredients until creamy and add it into half of mixture A.
4. Beat butter & sweetened condensed milk until creamy then add into the other half of mixture A.  Add the melted chocolate into the mixture and finally the chocolate paste.
5. Prepare a baking pan 9 "X9" x3 ". Grill the cake layer by layer, alternating the chocolate and cheese mixture until finished.
6. Chill in the refrigerator overnight before cutting.


NOTES:
I grilled the mixture layer by layer at 170 deg C for abt 7-8 mins.  For the last layer I baked the cake using the top and bottom heat for 15 minutes.


Me Te Aroha...With Love,
Anie ;)

Anie/Izah n friends

Samalah kita suka berjimba kat supermarket esp kat chiller sec. n section bahan2 kueh. I baru jumpa 1 supermarket yg boleh melayan citarasa mata aka window shopping.

My hb tak suka pusing2 dkt supermarket :( Si Jannah plak tak bole duduk diam dlm trolley :( So....yg merayau2 kat dlm tu cuma I sowang2 ajer....huhuhu

Anie said...

Somuffins,

Waaahhh kita dua sehati sejiwa suka window shopping dkt supermarket hehehez. Tapi I mmg gitu arh suka stand at that particular section and compare prices...hehehez. My hb plak pantang tgk I buat gitu...dia asik nak cepat ajer. So, tak tenteram lah shopping dgn dia.

Cik Som, 4 keping cukup ke...kita kat sini mkn tak henti2 ni...hehehez. Kalau u dkt, I kasi arh 1/2 block...;)

Anie, dah tido ke? ahaks! i dtng nk selongkar dapur u...ada lagi tak kek lapis cun ni..hehe btw memang tabik tul la kalau u lapis cun abis....semlm baru u ckp ada angin M tetiba hari ni keluar dh angin R dan kek lapis yang mabeles ni..hebat tul. ehh..apasal murah sgt cream cheese kat sana tu?..kat sini 1 ketul 200gm dlm euro 2 tau..dan sama lah kalau i keluar suka juga belek brng kat supermarket lama2..hehe

Anie said...

Tenkiu Nieza, I masih diserang virus M...tapi tak tahap gaban lah. Tahap cipan aja...hahahaz. Tu sbb buat lapisan kek ni tebal2 sikit sbb nak cepat abis. Masih ada lagi 1/2 block kek ni kalau u nak :ppp

Cream cheese tgh reduce to clear sbb dah nak hampir expire tu pasal I cuma beli seketol jer. Harga biasa $3-$3.50 for a 250gm block, so sikit lebih kurang halal lah dgn harga dkt sana ;)

Samalah kita suka belek2 brg...bestkan ahakksss

Rima said...

You know Anie.. sometimes i wish my hb ni bukan jenis suka window shopping kat supermarket.. selalunye i will try to persuade him to stay in the car with sonia.. tak pun i can go sorang sorang but usually thats not the case.. dia sibuk nak pi recce benda murah kat chiller section.. kot kot ade mascorpone cheese on sale ke.. cream cheese on sale ke.. dah tu dak sonia ni suka panjat kat freezer section.. haizz tak tenteram hati ku .. my excitement nak do groceries shopping habis habisan i pulak kena jaga si sonia .. (of cos i will nag lah and told my hb off if i tak leh angs hahaha.. harusssssss)

Maya Marisa said...

Anie,
omg! wat a combo...Choc & Cheese...
aiyo! soo many eggs to use? hhmm..its wokay, berkorban apa saja..

Anie said...

Rima,

Hehehez...kesian u. My hb plak kadang2 nak ikut tapi nak tunggu jer dlm kereta. Abis kalau dia tunggu lama jer dlm kereta dia mula berapi....dah suruh duduk dkt rumah ajer tak nak. Tunggu lama sikit jer jadi impatient...susahkan mcm gini issshhh. Tapi most of the time, my groceries shopping is with Jannah. Arrgghhh dia pun sama mmg tak tau diam duduk dlm trolley tu. Kadang2 semua benda dia nak suruh I beli...ahakkss

A few time I saw mascarpone reduced to clear, tapi I walked away. Lain kali mesti grab and buat the tiramisu yg telah lama menjadi pojaan hati I.....hehehez
