Nutella Swirl Cream Cheese Pound Cake

Difficulty: Easy
Time: 1.5hr
Number of servings: 1 loaf

Necessary Equipment:
18×8cm (7x3inch) loaf pan
electric mixer

Ingredients:
100g (3.5oz.) cream cheese *room temperature
50g (1.8oz.) butter *room temperature
50g (1.8oz.) granulated sugar
2 eggs *room temperature
120g (4.2oz.) cake flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
vanilla extract *if you like
50g (1.8oz.) nutella
1 tbsp. milk *soy milk or almond milk is OK
almond slices *if you like

Directions:
1. Line the loaf pan with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 180C (350F).
2. Place cream cheese and butter in a bowl. Mix with an electric mixer until creamy.
3. Add granulated sugar, then mix with an electric mixer for about 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
4. Add beaten eggs 1/3 at a time, and mix well with an electric mixer until fluffy incorporated.
5. Mix in a few drops of vanilla extract if you like.
6. Sift in cake flour and baking powder, then mix with a spatula until just incorporated.
7. In a different bowl, place nutella and milk, then mix well. Then add 1/4 of the batter (6.) and mix well.
8. Add the nutella batter back into the cream cheese batter, then cut through the batter for 3 times to lightly swirl. *DO NOT overmix
9. Pour the batter into the pan and smooth the top. Drop the pan lightly on the counter for 2-3 times to raise the air bubbles out of the batter. Use the spatula to cut an incision lengthwise down middle of cake to prevent unwanted cracks on the surface. Sprinkle with some almond slices if you like. Bake at 180C (350F) for about 45 minutes. *Cover the cake with aluminum foil if it starts to brown too much.
10. Check for doneness with a fresh skewer. Remove the cake from the pan and place it on a wire rack to cool.

* When the cake is completely cool, wrap tightly in plastic wrap. It will last wrapped this way for few days (in the fridge).
* You can also wrap each slices of pound cake individually with a plastic wrap then keep in the freezer for over a week.

Mochi Ice Cream (Yukimi Daifuku)

Difficulty: Easy
Time: 30min
Number of servings: 8

Ingredients:
50g (1.8oz.) Shiratamako (lumpy glutinous rice flour)
75g (2.7oz.) sugar *you will need at least this much sugar to keep the Mochi soft in the freezer. some people add 1 tsp. of cooking oil to keep it even softer.
100ml water
ice cream of your choice
Katakuriko (potato starch) or corn starch

Directions:
1. Place Shiratamako (lumpy glutinous rice flour) in a microwavable bowl. Add water little by little and mix very well with a whisk. Then add sugar and mix well. *DO NOT add sugar before you mix the Shiratamako and water together. Otherwise, they won't mix well (the lumpy texture won't go away).
2. Cover with plastic wrap, then microwave at 600 watts for 2 minutes. Mix well with a damp spatula. Cover with plastic wrap again, then microwave at 600 watts for 1 minute. Mix well with a damp spatula.
3. Dust some starch on the counter. Place the mochi. Then sprinkle some starch and flatten out the mochi using your hands and a rolling pin to 3mm (0.1 inch) thick.
4. When the mochi is completely cool, cut into 8 square pieces. OR you can use a round cookie cutter or a cup to cut into 8 round pieces.
5. Line a small bowl with plastic wrap, place the mochi, place some ice cream, pinch the mochi to seal, then wrap with plastic wrap to shape.
6. Keep in the freezer. When you eat, put it out from the fridge for a few minutes until the mochi gets soft.
