Did you measure the liquid ingredients correctly?<br /><br />Hi Miss Cake, I am not sure what brown sugar you are using. If it is just regular light or dark brown sugar you can just beat it together with eggs without making it into syrup.

Would you suggest I decrease the steaming time, or let the cake cool in the pan instead of turning it out onto a rack (I turned it out after 10 minutes). What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance!!!

When you sieve the batter you get rid of all the air that you incorporated in when you beat the eggs. Try folding the flour into the egg mixture in 3 batches and don't put it in all at once. This might help to get rid of the lumps.ICook4Funhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02405825862798280769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36043957.post-80913900808129615942009-09-08T13:04:39.690-04:002009-09-08T13:04:39.690-04:00Thank you for sharing this recioe.

My cake was light and fluffy on the top but turned out dense at the bottom. What can I do to fix this? When I sifted in the flour mixture, the flour formed lumps in the batter. What is the best way to get rid of them? I ended up sifting the batter to get rid of the lumps.
