I din get to bake last week as I was getting some new boxes and trying to better organise my bakewares. And after all the packing, it’s all over again trying to get used to where I keep this and so I took a little break since it’s has been a busy work week and racing against time to reply personal emails. To all who wrote, I’m sorry as I will take a longer to reply. I do feel something amiss when I din turn on my oven, din touch the butter/flour, it’s a habit!
This is something I bake the other week but I dunno where I keep the book till today.
The original recipe calls for Rum but since I dun hv, I replace it with my favourite – Baileys! They call this a slice, not a cake so do not expect the texture to be soft, fluffy type. It’s more dense and really chocolatey.

Tell me, moderate is around 140-150 Celsius degree. I intend to do this recipe for my friend’s birthday.
Thank you for your help.
Hi Lien, I set to 160 degrees.
