Yogurt Cotton Cake
Overview
Seeing my friends making cakes makes me want to eat cakes too. I haven’t made cakes for a long time. I just participated in the second baking competition and won a prize. The prize is a Kepu egg beater. I can’t wait to use it immediately. I made two at once today. This cotton cake is made using the water bath method. I thought it would be a waste of energy to bake just one cake in such a large oven, so I made a light cheesecake using the water bath method at the same time. But precisely because I made two at a time and beat the egg whites at once, I was afraid that the mixed cheese paste would settle for a long time, so I mixed the paste in a hurry. The egg whites were not mixed enough, and there were some big bubbles in it. Fortunately, it is still soft, and it lives up to the name cotton. It has a melt-in-your-mouth texture, which is really good.

Ingredients
Steps
-
Heat the oil first, then turn off the heat and pour the flour into the oil while it is still hot. Stir quickly to form a dough
-
Continue stirring until the batter becomes fine and smooth
-
Place 1 whole egg and 5 egg yolks in another bowl
-
Pour in the yogurt too,
-
Stir evenly,
-
Then pour the egg milk into the batter and mix evenly,
-
Add a few drops of white vinegar to the egg whites, use the low speed of the Kepu egg mixer to stir until large bubbles form, pour in half of the sugar,
-
Turn to high speed 5 and continue mixing. When the foam becomes slightly fine, pour in the remaining sugar
-
Finally, whisk the egg whites until they are stiff and stiff, that is, when you lift the whisk, it has a straight tip.
-
Add about 1/3 of the egg whites into the batter and mix evenly
-
Then add all the remaining egg whites
-
Continue to use the cutting and mixing method to mix evenly
-
Pour into the mold and shake a few times
-
Preheat the oven to 170 degrees for 5 minutes. Place a baking pan with water on the bottom layer and a baking mesh on top. Then bake at 150 degrees for 50 minutes. If the color is light, increase the temperature to 170 degrees and bake for 10 minutes to brown.
-
Turn the baked cake upside down to cool
-
Unmold after cooling. I put plastic wrap underneath, and the skin peeled off after being left there for a long time. It affects the appearance a little bit, but does not affect the taste.
