Ingredients

Tepung Pelita – 1 portion
All-purpose flour – 250 g
Granulated sugar – 200 g
Butter – 150 g
Eggs – 3 large
Baking powder – 1 tsp

Steps

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and prepare your baking dish by greasing it lightly.
Cream butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes in a stand mixer.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then fold in the dry ingredients for Tepung Pelita with gentle strokes to avoid deflating the batter.
Pour into the prepared dish and level the top with a spatula.
Bake for 30–35 minutes until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Check at 25 minutes to avoid over-baking.
Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a rack. Dust with powdered sugar or add the traditional topping before serving.
