Can there be a better way to
start a blog than by an amazing Chocolate Cake. I
think not!
But no this is not just any
chocolate cake, this is a Egg-less Chocolate
Microwave Cake!! You know what that means!
It is feasible for all, cheap, super
fast, and easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy!
Before you go all "eh! Egg-less? pfffft!!", I promise
you this chocolaty thingy is absolutely delicious!!
The measurements used in this recipe would serve
4 or at the most 5 humans. If you are a family of giants who live in the castle in the clouds, I suggest you increase the proportions by 250 times.
Ingredients :
- Refined
Flour (Maida) / All Purpose Flower / Cake Flour - 1
Cup
- Baking
Powder - 1/2 Tsp
- Cocoa
Powder - 5-6 Tsp
- Sugar - 1/2
Cup
- Refined
Oil / Vegetable Oil - 1/2 Cup
- Wisked
Curd - 1/2 Cup
- Milk - 1
Cup
Procedure :
1. Sift the flour
and the baking powder through a sieve. (Oh! Who are you kidding?! I know you made patterns in your flour too!!)
2. In a gigantic mixing bowl, mix the sugar, oil and cocoa powder and keep whisking like your life depended upon it till the sugar melts.
3. Now, make sure you drop your whisk, make a mess and make your life harder than it already is.
4. Moving on....Add in the curd and whisk again.
5. Start adding the flour little by little and keep mixing.
6. Once the flour is all mixed and pretty, add in the milk and mix...AGAIN!
7. Grease a microwave-safe bowl/dish. Dust it with flour.
8. Pour in the cake batter neatly. Bake it in the Microwave at high micro (900) for about 6 minutes.
9. While the cake is in the Microwave, clean up the massive mess that you have obviously created.
10. When the Microwave beeps, do the tooth-pick test. If required, cook for a about 2 - 3 more minutes max.
11. Once done, let the cake cool inside the Microwave. If you try to take the cake out of the pan while it is still hot, there is a heavy chance for it to break or crumble.
12. Once the cake is cool enough to be held by bare hands or once it reaches room temperature, take a sharp knife and slide it carefully all around the edges to make sure the cake is not stuck to the sides.
Now take a plate or a cake stand, cover the cake pan, and flip it quickly like a boss! Tap the bottom of the cake dish if necessary. Your cake should slide off the dish perfectly!
13. Slice the cake and serve it to awestruck guests! You can even serve it with a dusting of Icing Sugar over the slices if you are feeling fancy!!
