Tips How to Make No Oven Ube Condensed Milk Cake
- I used the ube flavored condensed milk for this recipe, alternatively you may add 2 tsp ube flavoring or ½ cup ube halaya instead.
- Softened the butter to room temperature, leave it outside the refrigerator for about 30-60 minutes.
- Use a separate bowl when working on the dry and wet ingredients. This way, you can ensure that it is mixed thoroughly.
- Instead of baking it in the oven, I used a large pot enough to fit my baking pan and put it over a wire rack. I set it to medium heat and cook it for 45 minutes to an hour.
- If you prefer to use the oven, you may bake this cake at 180°C or 356°F for 40 minutes.
- It is cooked if the toothpick comes out clean when inserted.
Based on my experience, my kids and husband loved the cake I made. Take note that they weren’t big fans of the flavor, but they enjoyed it nonetheless. The dessert didn’t even survive until dinnertime. They finished it off quicker than I expected. It made me want to cook it again for them one of these days.
It’s nice to try new things once in a while. If you have enough time and a little extra in your budget, try making your own ube condensed milk cake. I assure you, you won’t regret it.
