Kek Lapis Kopi

I misses the Hari Raya goodies so so much. One of the best is Kek Lapis. You need to take a lot of time to grill this type of cake. Grilling it layer by layer. Normally, in Kek Lapis ingredient need a lot of egg yolks and sugar. This one is pretty good you do not need so much egg yolks.
