Vanilla Triangle Cake

Source : Masala Mornings

Makes : 12

Ingredients :

•  1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp.  baking powder
• 1/2 cup butter ( I used cooking oil )
• 1/2 cup caster sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp.  vanilla essence

Method :

• Sieve flour and baking powder in a bowl, keep aside.
• In a separate bowl, combine butter and sugar. Beat till creamy.
• Add in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Add essence and beat again.
• Fold in flour mixture.
• Prepare Sandwich Maker by brushing both sides of the sandwich maker ( cooking surface ) with cooking oil. Close and preheat until the light turns red.
• Spoon your cake batter in each well until full but not overflowing. 

• Close the lid of the sandwich maker and cook for approximately 3 - 4 minutes or until golden brown. 

• Take out the cakes, sprinkle with Icing sugar & serve right away.

My Notes :

• Check after 3 minutes with a toothpick, if the tooth pick comes out clean, it's ready. If not, cook a little longer, checking after every minute. 
• They are best eaten right away. But you can make them in advance too, just microwave for a minute or so until warm.
