I tried making Fann Wong’s fudge loaf cake and WOW

The end of circuit breaker meant the resumption of our normal lives somewhat, and with that, some hobbies that we picked up might have ended with us no longer needing to stay home.

That’s not the case for Fann Wong, though. She’s continued to share what’s she’s been up to in the kitchen and with her oven, well after the end of circuit breaker.

To mark Chinese Valentine’s Day on Monday (August 25), she put up a video and recipe of her fudge loaf cake. Husband Christopher Lee and son Zed must have devoured it quite quickly, as despite the huge loaf in the image, Fann proudly proclaimed on social media that it was “out of stock already”.

Here’s my attempt at Fann’s fudge loaf cake recipe, where I halved the ingredients to fit a smaller pan.

Ingredients

For a 21.5cm x 11.5cm loaf pan

Loaf cake

  • 60g cocoa powder
  • 125ml hot water
  • 1 egg
  • 100g caster sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 63ml vegetable oil
  • 113g all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder

Fudge

  • 30g cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp corn flour
  • 50g caster sugar
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 125ml full cream milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 8g butter

2. Add egg, caster sugar, vanilla extract and vegetable oil into a bowl and mix well till you get a smooth pale yellow mixture.

3. Sieve in all-purpose flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder into mixture.

4. Add in the chocolate mixture to the batter and whisk well.

5. Pour batter into a loaf tin lined with baking paper. Tap the pan on the table to remove any air pockets in the mixture. Place into an oven that has been pre-heated to 175 degree Celcius and bake for 50 to 55 mins.

The verdict
image

It’s easier than it looks and we’re not surprised that Chris and Zed cleaned it up

It may not be as big as Fann’s loaf as I didn’t have as big a tin as she does, but it’s still pretty impressive-looking.

And though the list of ingredients looks intimidating and long, the steps are not too complicated, and you don’t even need a mixer — hand power is more than enough for this recipe.

The resulting cake is moist and spongy, with the sweetness from the fudge perfectly complementing the cake. My taste testers highly recommended ensuring that there is fudge with each bite of the cake that you take.

If you were a circuit baker who has since hung up your oven mittens, this is an easy yet delicious recipe to get back in the baking game.
