Delicious and will make again

My convection oven was too powerful, will modify the temperature like in this recipe https://youtu.be/F4Ih4XxsL_A


Steps from his video:

bring to room temp: 2 blocks cream cheese, 3 eggs, 240 ml heavy cream

preheat oven to 475 F, rack top 1/3 of the oven

cake pan 3 inches tall


add room temp softened cream cheese to the mixing bowl

hand mixer or stand mixer, medium speed until soft and fluffy

add granulated sugar, mix on medium w cream cheese until all dissolved, a minute or 2

scrape the bowl halfway thru, and mix until you can't feel any sugar granules.

add eggs room temp one at a time, thoroughly mixed before adding another one, medium speed

add salt and vanilla extract, mix on low

while mixer still going, slowly stream in cream

sift in all purpose flour

use spatula to fold until thoroughly combined, scrape bowl


add ube:

divide into 3 slightly different sizes:

slightly larger: add very little ube

medium: moderate ube, add drops and mix until desired color

slightly smaller: most saturated ube


poured darkest to lightest, go from a height and poured quickly, gravity will pull to bottom and swirl it

gently swirl a very surface, don't go too far down

placed cake to a baking tray, put to oven 30 minutes, and then start checking in

cake rises

done when top is cracked, edges is brown, center wobbly but not overly liquidy

check every 5 minutes

keep baking until center is slightly wobbly

6 inches he baked 35 minutes

need to cool completely in the pan, let cool 2 hrs minimum

center will collapse


can serve rightaway, or put in fridge and let come back to room temp 1 hr


use parchment to lift cake from the pan

transfer to serving plate

dunk knife to hot water and wipe knife clean between each cut
