    Place in the preheated oven for 10-15 mins or till the top of the cake is brown.Reduce the temperature of the oven to 125 deg Celsius and bake for a further 60-70 mins.When the cake is done, turn off the heat and let it cool in the oven for 5 mins. Then remove the cake from the oven and allow to cool on the counter top covered with a dry clean cloth.Best served chilled. In fact, I say MUST chill. But somehow my husband likes it freshly cooled after being baked. Try it both ways!
