Steamed Orange and Chocolate Cake

I love orange and chocolate cake as I feel they go hand in hand together. Normally, people will bake their cake but there are also another way of making a cake, that is by steaming. I was rumbling through my dry pantry looking for tea-time snack, and I saw the leftover ingredients from the last cake I bake, and hence I decided it would be perfect to bake a cake. But, the last cake I baked did not turn out very well because the oven had turned out kaput, so I decided to try and steam the cake. And voila! It turned out perfectly well! Enjoy!

Ingredients
* pls note to use the same exact measurement for the cup to achieve a better result.

1 cup castor sugar
1 cup butter or margarine
1 3/4 cups of self-raising flour
4 grade A eggs
2 table spoon Van Houten chocolate powder
1 orange zest and juice
2-3 drops chocolate colouring
2-3 drops orange colouring

Methods
1. In a mixing bowl, put in the butter and sugar. Whip until the sugar has dissolved.

2. When the sugar has dissolved, add in the eggs one by one and whip until the mixture turns white and fluffy.

3. When the mixture turns white and fluffy, add in the flour and mix well by flipping the flour in the same direction but in a circular movement.

4. When it's done, separate the mixture into two parts.

5. In one bowl, add in the chocolate powder and the chocolate colouring and mix well.

6. In another bowl, add in the zest of one orange and the juice. Also add some orange colouring to make the colour stands out. Mix well.

7. In a 20 inch baking pan, spread the whole pan with some butter and add in the chocolate and orange mixture side by side until it finishes.

8. Meanwhile, get your steamer ready. When it's ready, put in the baking pan and steam in a medium heat for about 45 minutes or until the cake is done. You can see if it's done by pricking a a fork through the cake and if the fork comes out clean, then the cake is ready to be served.

9. Wait until the cake has cooled down before serving.
