Ingredients
- All purpose flour - 2 cups
- Dark Chocolate Cocoa pdr - 3/4 cup
- Baking powder - 1 1/4 tsp
- Baking soda - 1 tsp
- Fat free / Full fat condensed milk - 400 gm ( 1 tin)
- Caster Sugar - 1 1/2 cup ( reduced sugar, as I used frosting)
- Water - 3/4 cup
- Vanilla Essence - 1 tsp
- Salt - a pinch
For Frosting
- Whipping Cream (Puk/ Al Marai/ Amul or any brand) - 250 ml ( I reduced half of 500 ml )
- Sugar - 1/2 cup
- Cocoa pdr/ chocolate grated - 2 tbsp
Method
- Preheat the oven at 180 degree Celsius.
- Place the parchment paper on bottom of cake tin and grease the sides with butter and flour..Tap the excess flour..Keep aside
- In a bowl, mix all purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder, salt and mix well thoroughly with a spatula or large spoon..
\- In a seperate bowl, mix or beat condensed milk and sugar together till sugar dissolves.
- Add flour-cocoa mixture and water into wet ingredient alternately ( 3 times) and beat at very low speed..
- Pour this mixture into greased cake tin and gently tap the sides to distribute the batter evenly.
- Place the cake tin in a preheated oven. Bake for 40 mins till fork or toothpick insert in the center comes out clean..If not, bake for few minutes..
- When it cools slightly, invert the cake on a wire rack and let it cool completely, if you are applying icing or frosting, otherwise cream will melt.
For Frosting
- Before whipping the cream, place the bowl and beater stand in a freezer for 10 mins..
- Take out the bowl from freezer and fit the stand back to the electric beater...
- Beat a cold fresh cream at medium speed for 1 min, then beat at high speed for 5 mins till it form thick peak..
- Add sugar and beat till sugar dissolves...Don't beat for too long else it will turn into butter,,,
- Add cocoa pdr or grated chocolate and beat for 1 second..Frosting ready..
- Apply frosting on top of cake with bottom of large knife or spatula or pipe the frosting on various designs..
- Refrigerate the cake..It tastes delicious when chilled..
- Cut the cake into wedge shaped and serve chilled..It tastes more delicious next day.
Note
- If you are using frosting on cake, reduce the sugar on cake..
- If you don't like frosting, you can ignore it..It tastes delicious without icing too..
