Shokolade Kuchen

This is Chocolate cake in Deutsch (german).

There was a simple recipe in my recipe book that I had written around 14 years back. It was lying there without anyone trying it. Patience pays! And this sunday it attained salvation and magically transformed itself from a dull bunch of words on a old paper into a sumptuous delicacy waiting to be devoured !

Heres the recipe for the low-calorie , egg less , easy to make chocolate cake.

Try it -you will be surprised that such a simple recipe can yield such a delicious treat!

Ingredients:

• 1 ½ cups Maida
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tsp baking soda
• ½ tsp salt
• 3 tablespoons cocoa powder

• 1 tbsp vinegar
• 1/3 cup sunflower oil
• 1 cup water
• 1 tsp vanilla essence

Method

1. Sift all the dry ingredients twice
2. Mix all the wet ingredients in a bowl and mix lightly.
3. Add the dry ingredients slowly. Do not beat just mix
4. Bake at 180 deg C in the oven (or convection mode in your microwave oven) for 40 min.
5. Prick and check if it is done and cool it before serving!

I made this in a Silicone baking dish that my sister got me. It is just superb !

The cake tiptoed so gracefully out of this !

So, all in all it was a Happy Sister’s day!
