Puto Cheese is a rice cake popular in the Philippines as a 'merienda' or snack as well as with breakfast. I love eating Puto with coffee.
I made Puto cheese like 10 times already using different recipes from different web blogs.
Well, this evening, I found the perfect texture and taste although I think it needs a teaspoonful more of baking powder but for me, this is the closest taste of Puto that I used to eat back in my home country.
So here are the ingredients:
1 cup All Purpose Flour
1/2 cup Sugar
1 tsp Baking Powder
1 cup Fresh Milk
3 tbsps Melted Butter
a pinch of salt
1 large egg
I combined all the dry ingredients and mixed them. Then on a separate bowl, I beat the egg with a half cup of milk. I then added the other half cup of milk to the dry ingredients mixture. Add the butter next, then mix thoroughly.
Afterwards, I placed the mixture in molds, topped with cheese slices and then steam for 20-30 minutes until the texture is fluffy. You can insert a toothpick to make sure that the middle is already cooked.
There you go...the almost perfect Puto Cheese!
