Thousand Layer Spice Cake Spekkoek Lapis Legit Recipes
SPEKKOEK (THOUSAND LAYER SPICE CAKE)
A Dutch/Indonesian butter cake, best-known for being served with coffee after the ever-popular Dutch/Indonesian rijsttaffel. A good Spekkoek will have at least 12 layers or more. The heat of the grill browns the top of each layer, giving the cut cake its neat horizontal striped look. Spekkoek will keep moist and fresh in a cake tin or in the fridge for a week, well wrapped in a greaseproof paper. It can also be frozen if wrapped in a layer of aluminium foil. Because of the richness of the cake, it tends to be served in very small pieces, usually thin slices.

SPEKKOEK (LAPIS LEGIT)
A legacy of Dutch colonialism, this "thousand layer cake" is often served after the rijsttafel but will do equally well served with the coffee or tea. This is a very rich cake and should be served in thin slices. I found this at Indochef.com I've made something like this years ago. (This is optional) Spread a thin layer of warmed jam and every 2 layers and spread chocolate after the next 2 layers of batter was baked. Be sure to stay with the cake as you cook it. My picture show of the cake made in a 10 inch so you'll get more layers when baking in a 9 inch. This is also great without the spices and just the jam and chocolate layers.

- Mix all the dry ingredients and set aside. Place the butter and condensed milk in a large mixing bowl or stand mixer bowl with a paddle attachment. Cream them until they are pale.
- Remove pan from the oven and spoon about 4 Tbsp of the batter on the pan for the first layer and tip the pan slightly to evenly cover the surface of the pan. Pop into the oven and let it cook for 5 minutes. Bake until it is golden brown and the cake is no longer "jiggly". Remove from the oven. I don't have a special tool to flatten the cake. You can use a rubber spatula or fondant smoother to gently flatten the cake. Brush the cake with some melted butter. Brush every layer before you pour the next layer to be baked
- Remove from the oven and let it cool down in the pan for about 5 minutes. Then loosen the edge of the cake with a knife and then gently pull the cake out and let it cool down completely on a cooling rack
