Japanese Sweet Potato Cake

I tried making this sweet potato cake the other day and it turned out deliciously. It's a very easy, no-frills recipe that anyone can make, so I hope you have fun trying it out!

Ingredients:

• 300ml of milk
• 150g Japanese sweet potato (steamed or baked)
• 80g of sugar
• 50g of hotcake mix (I used all-purpose flour with some baking powder)
• 50g margarine (or butter)
• 2 eggs

1. Mix all the ingredients in a blender or electric mixer.
2. Pour the mixture inside a round pan or oven-safe bowl lined with parchment paper.
3. Bake at 180°C for 40-50 minutes. Leave it in the oven and bake with the remaining heat for an additional 5 minutes if required.

Mine turned out like this :)

Don't panic if comes out a little more gooey or droopy than you expected, because it is supposed to have that cheesecake-like consistency. Appearance-wise, it is very simple, just the goodness of sweet potato in cake form! Enjoy :)

Oh, and don't even think about eating this before letting it cool down a bit. Especially because it's not as dry as your average cake. If you watch the video linked below you'll see what I mean. He learned it the hard way, and so did I (kind of), that's why I'm telling you now xD
