  4. Fold in the sieved ingredients into this egg mixture and mix well.
  5. Pour in half the cake mixture into a greased cake pan (8ins or 9 ins)
  6. Pour in all the cheese filling on top and spread out. For wave-like effects, don't spread the cheese too evenly.
  7. Pour in the remaining cake mixture and let the cake even out.
  8. Bake for 55mins-60mins (8ins cake pan) pr 45-50mins (9ins cake pan)
  9. Test with a tooth pick or skewer to make sure cake is cooked.
  10. Take cake out of the pan after 10 mins as leaving it in the hot pan will have the effect of shrinking the cake later
