how can i make it in microwave convection mode?
This is a lovely recipe. However, my family thinks this is too sweet for their preference. Can I reduce the amount of condensed milk? What should I adjust in order to keep the texture. Besides, if we would like to have lighter texture, how can this be adjusted? Thanks in advance.
is there any alternative for electric beater?also I had square glass bowl,can it be used to make cake?
My cake become so hard i have done all steps whats the problem
