Test with a bamboo pick. If the kuih does not cook within the time mentioned, you can add another 10-20 minutes.

Hi there,
I tried the recipe you provided, the taste was good.. unfortunately, there is no beehive in the cake. only the very bottom of the cake have holes on it. May I know why I failed? I've followed the steps and everything you said.. but still fail.

Thanks
MEI
