MAMON
Ingredients – Measurements:
Pan Brush:
Salted Butter (Softened) – ¼ cup
Egg Yolk Side:
Salted Butter – ¼ cup
Cake Flour (Unsifted) – 1 cup
Baking Powder – ½ tsp
Sugar – ⅓ cup
Egg Yolks of 6 large eggs
Water – ¼ cup
Egg White Side:
Egg Whites of 6 large eggs
Cream of Tartar – ¼ tsp
Sugar – ½ cup
Optional Toppings:
Unsalted Creamed Butter – as desired
Grated Cheddar Cheese – as desired
Sugar – as desired
Procedure:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place softened salted butter in a mixing bowl with paddle attachment. Set to medium speed, and cream the butter for approximately 5 minutes until it turns a light yellow in color.
- Generously brush 14 mamon molds with the creamed butter, making sure the ridges of each mold are fully coated to prevent sticking.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, then set aside to cool.
- Combine the cake flour, baking powder, and sugar in a bowl. Sift 3 times, then set aside.
- Pour egg yolks, water, and melted butter in a mixing bowl with paddle attachment. Mix at low speed for 1 minute to blend ingredients.
- With the mixer still running, gradually add the sifted dry ingredients (cake flour, baking powder, and sugar) and continue mixing for 3 minutes until all ingredients are blended. Scrape the bottom and sides of bowl, then set aside.
- Combine egg whites and cream of tartar in another mixing bowl with wire whip attachment. Beat under high speed until the egg whites double in volume.
- While maintaining high speed, gradually add ½ cup of sugar in a steady stream.
- Continue beating until medium peaks are achieved in the process.
- Set mixer to low speed, and run for a few seconds to eliminate large air pockets in the meringue.
- Manually fold in the egg yolk side into the meringue using the cut-and-fold method. Folding in should be done swiftly but gently to prevent the meringue from collapsing.
- Once batter is evenly mixed, divide the batter equally in to the prepared mamon molds.
- Bake mamon in the center of the oven for 15 to 18 minutes.
- Once baked, remove mamon from the molds immediately, and set on wire rack to cool.
- (Optional) Brush tops with butter, then sprinkle grated cheese and sugar.
