Ingredients Needed
To make this scrumptious corn cake, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4 eggs (washed and sanitized)
- 3 tablespoons of butter (or margarine)
- 2 cans of corn (drained, or you can use fresh corn from about 3-4 ears)
- 1 cup of milk (240 ml)
- 1 can of sweetened condensed milk (or about 1 cup of sugar)
- 100 grams of grated coconut
- A pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon of baking powder (divided into two halves)
Preparation Steps
Step 1: Mixing the Base
- In a mixing bowl, start by beating the eggs with the butter until well combined. You can use a whisk or a hand mixer for this step.
- Once the mixture is smooth, transfer it to a blender.
Step 2: Adding Corn and Milk
- Add the drained corn and milk to the blender. Blend the mixture until it is finely pureed, which should take about 2 minutes.
- Pour the blended mixture back into the mixing bowl.
Step 3: Sweetening the Mixture
- Add the sweetened condensed milk (or sugar) to the corn mixture. Stir well to combine.
- Next, add the grated coconut and a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor. Mix everything thoroughly.
Step 4: Preparing the Baking Pan
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Grease a round or rectangular baking pan with butter to prevent sticking.
Step 5: Dividing the Batter
- Divide the batter into two equal parts. In one half, add half a tablespoon of baking powder and mix well.
- Pour this mixture into the prepared baking pan and bake for about 15 minutes.
Step 6: Adding Cream Cheese
- After the first layer is baked, remove it from the oven. Spread the cream cheese evenly over the top of the baked layer.
- In the second half of the batter, add the remaining half tablespoon of baking powder and mix well.
- Pour this second mixture over the cream cheese layer in the pan.
Step 7: Final Baking
- Return the cake to the oven and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Serving the Cake
Once the cake is baked, let it cool slightly before removing it from the pan. Use a knife to gently loosen the edges, and then invert it onto a plate. This cake is best served warm, and you will notice its creamy texture and delightful aroma.
