Steamed Black Sesame Kuih

Chanced upon this recipe here and decided to do it since I have all ingredients on hand and this seems healthier.

I like black sesame so I like the subtle black sesame taste in this kuih. And I like to peel it off layer by layer, just like how I always eat 九层糕 "9 Layer Cake".
