Not so sure this is what you are looking for if not please let me know and I will find more for you. Kim 
Also known as Sticky Cake, this New Years dish is traditionally fed to the Chinese Kitchen God, so that he will give a favorable report on the family's behavior throughout the previous year when he returns to heaven.
1 tablespoon flour
2 eggs, with whites and yolks separated
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/4 cups glutinous rice flour
1/3 cup milk
1 cup Chinese dried fruits, pitted if necessary and diced*
1 piece crystallized ginger, diced (optional)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Grease a loaf pan that is approximately 4 x 8 inches and set aside.
Beat the egg whites until stiff. Cream together the butter and the sugar. Add the egg yolks and mix thoroughly. Add one-third (a little less than 1/2 cup) of the glutinous rice flour and mix. Add about half of the milk. Continue adding the rice flour and the milk alternately until the entire amount is mixed in.
Stir in whichever fruits you are using and then add the beaten egg whites, folding them into the cake batter.
Pour the cake batter into the loaf pan and steam, covered, for about one hour. Allow to cool and cut into thin slices.
