Mocca-choco cake

Yesterday , i felt like baking after a long~~~ non baking period. Since i've moved into our new house i havent got the chance for baking even though i kinda enjoyed baking before.





I found this really easy chocolate cake recipe in a website but when i started preparing & measuring the ingredients i found that i don't have any coco powder, milk and butter. So i alter the recipe a lil bit and it turns out great. Try it yourself!

Ingredients:
1 + 1/2 cup (170 g) all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons nescafe powder (or any instant coffee powder)
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 pinches salt
1 cup (220 g) sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla essence
1/2 cup milk or water ( i use whipping cream )
1/2 cup vegetable oil (flavorless)
2 eggs

Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 180 deg C
  2. Grease a 23 cm cake tin.
  3. Mix flour, instant coffee powder, baking powder, salt, sugar and vanilla essence in a bowl.
  4. Add milk/water, vegetable oil and eggs.
  5. Mix everything together until smooth, either by hand or by using an electric mixer at slow speed. If the batter is too runny you may add slightly more flour.
  6. Transfer to bake tin and bake at 180 degrees until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, approximately 35 to 45 minutes.

p/s: I use Hersey's choco syrup for frosting. superb!
