Method
- Heat the oven to 175°C and grease small decorative molds.
- Sift flour, baking powder, and salt twice.
- Beat egg yolks with half the sugar until pale, then blend in ube, milk, butter, and extract if using.
- Fold in the dry ingredients only until no flour pockets remain.
- Beat egg whites to soft peaks, add remaining sugar gradually, and beat to glossy medium peaks.
- Fold whites into the ube batter in three additions, then fill molds two-thirds full.
- Bake 15–18 minutes until springy and a skewer emerges clean. Cool briefly before unmolding.
