after removing from oven, drop pan lightly from a height of 10cm
there is no need to invert pan, but you can do so if it makes you feel more secure

亲们可选择将蛋糕倒扣
对我来说倒扣不倒扣没啥分别

Personal notes/温馨小贴士:

– baking time and temperature is for reference only
烘焙时间和温度仅供参考

– please remember to wrap your pan with 2 layers of foil. this time, i placed my cake pan into a 7 inch pan water bath, but raised it on a rack to allow easy removal （of my 6 inch pan) after baking
烤盘必需裹上两层锡纸。我这次将烤盘放入 7寸烤盘蒸烤，但用了蒸架将 6寸烤盘垫高以便将烤模取出

– i used crunchy peanut butter this time. you can also use creamy type
这次用了颗粒花生酱。亲们可用无颗粒哒

– once cake is out of oven, please DO NOT bang/drop your pan too hard as it will result int a wrinkled top!
蛋糕出炉后，切勿用力猛抛烤盘。这样会导致蛋糕表面出现“皱纹”

– please use very finely grounded peanut powder i.e. those used to coat muah chee. if you buy store bought, it may be sweetened or unsweetened. it does not really matter for this recipe. mine’s sweetened
务必使用细磨花生粉～既是用来裹麻薯那种。店铺买的有加糖和不加糖哒。两者通用。我的是带糖哒

– sugar portion: you can use all caster sugar or all brown sugar
糖的部份：可选用全绵白糖或黄糖

– net weight of my eggs: egg yolks weighed 66g, egg white 136g and whole egg 59g
蛋液净重用量：蛋黄 66克、蛋白 136克、全蛋 59克
