Instructions to make Three Layers Cake (Kue Lapis Surabaya):

- Pour the batter into 3 pans spreading evenly, then bake in preheated oven of 350 F for 12-15 minutes til it done (when the toothpick comes out clean).
- Take them from the oven, let them sit for awhile then take off the parchment paper.
- To assembly: When the cakes are cooled, place one of the plain (yellow) cake and spread the top with jam, top with chocolate layer.
- Spread the top of chocolate layer with jam, and top with the other of plain cake. Cover the cake with parchment paper and give a little pressure so that each cake sticks together.
- For me I like to wrap up with the aluminum foil and keep it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before cut and served.
- But of course you can cut and served right away after assembly. And enjoy the three layers cake with a cup of coffee, or tea ☕️
- Keep the leftovers in the refrigerator, this cake is very good to enjoy either warm or cold.
- ❤️Happy Baking❤️
- Note: If you have only 1 baking pan, you can baked it for three times.
