Thank you all for participating in the guessing and choosing game. Yes it is Kuih Bahulu. A traditional Malaysian kuih that can be found mostly during Hari Raya (Eid) or Chinese New Year. They came in various shapes. Sometimes flowery and other times in goldfish shape. And just like durian, I dont discriminate them by their shapes. Mine however look like a tiny acorn according to Michael. And now the image is stuck in my head and so does the movie Ice Age!
As mentioned in my previous post, I had to do something to redeem my failure in making Pandan Chiffon Cake. What better way than making something else that is fluffy, sweet and cute such as kuih bahulu?
For this, I followed the recipe from Rasa Malaysia since her Kuih Bahulu Recipe sounds easy and simple enough to follow. Just what an amatuer like me need and if I can make them, so can you.
Kuih Bahulu
Makes between 30-35 cute little thang
3 eggs
Makes between 30-35 cute little thang
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 1/4 cup flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
2 tsp vanilla essence
2 tbsp butter
1. Pre-heat oven at 375F
2. In a bowl, beat eggs until frosty then add sugar. Continue beating gradually changing from slow to fastest until mixture becomes sticky. About 12-15min.
3. Add vanilla essence and gradually add in the flour and butter. Continue beating for another 10min on high.
4. Grease mould and fill up to 3/4 of the 'holes'.
5. Bake for 15 min.
6. Once done, use a toothpick or wooden skewer to 'pick' them out and lay out on cooling rack.
7. Continue steps 4-6 until all batter are used.
** I do not have the flowery mould that Rasa Malaysia used. I got mine at 1 of the asian supermarket here. Email me if you want to see the picture or if you want to purchase the flowery mould, you can contact Rasa Malaysia.

Envy, yes i will email to u the recipe for tepung pelita.
Anjum & Envy, im not really sure if you ca use cupcakes mould since usually for bahulu, you need a thicker and heavier mould. Mine is cast iron. Maybe you can try using the smallest cupcake mould. Hope that helps.
