RICH CHOCOLATE EGGLESS CAKE

Ingredients:
Milkmaid 1/2 tin or 200 gm
Drinking Soda 100 ml
White Butter 60 gm
Sugar 1 tbsp
Maida 100 gm
Cocoa Powder 25 gm
Baking Powder 3/4 tsp
Soda-bi-carb 3/4 tsp
Vanilla Essence 1 tsp
Method:
1. Sift maida with cocoa powder, baking powder and soda-bi-carb (meetha soda) and keep aside.
2. Mix sugar and butter in a big bowl and beat well.
3. Add milkmaid and beat well.
4. Add half of drinking soda and half of maida mixture to the above batter and beat well.
5. Add rest of soda and rest of maida and beat well. While you beat the batter, see that bubbles are
formed. This makes the cake very soft and spongy.
6. Pre-heat the oven at 180 C. Grease a cake mould with oil, specially the edges, very well.
7. Pour the batter in it and bake in oven at 150 C. After 25 minutes check by inserting a knife's tip in
centre of the cake. If it comes out clean, your cake is done.
8. Switch off the oven and let the cake be there for 15 minutes, take out and serve hot.
9. Do not refrigerate these cakes and do not keep open in air. Keep them covered. The shelf life of
this cake is 2 days.
