Hello steemians. Making my very own puto cheese. Puto (Steamed Cake with Cheese) is a traditional Filipino snacks that is served accompanied by dinuguan (pork blood stew) or pancit. Originally made from ground rice. But this recipe, I was using all purpose flour instead. And it turned out to be fluffy and fine texture. Make it special by topping with slices of cheese. This is how to prepare:

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2-1/2 tbsp baking powder=double acting
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 cup evaporated milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cups water
  • slices of cheese
  • water for steaming
    for the exact measurement I used the digital weighing scale27781326_1539573492764133_2105954988_n.jpg
