YESTERDAY, I TOLD CORINNE THAT I HAVE DONE SOMETHING THAT HAS MADE ME
HAPPY. I BAKED A CAKE. AFTER PARTICIPATING IN UBC, MY TIME IS MOSTLY SPENT
ON READING CO-BLOGGER'S POST , WHICH I AM LOVING IT BUT LEAVES ME WITH
LITTLE TIME TO EXPERIMENT WITH MY CULINARY ARTS. MY SON AND HUBBY ARE
HAPPY EATING THE CAKE. AND OF COURSE , I TOO LOVE HOME-MADE CAKES. I DID
NOT ATTEND ANY BAKING CLASSES, BUT PICKED UP THE FINER NUANCES OF
BAKING BY READING 'COOKERY BOOKS.
THIS RECIPE IS HANDED DOWN TO ME BY MY MOM'S NEIGHBOUR AND I MADE
CHANGES TO THE ORIGINAL ONE.
INGREDIENTS
a) 1 CUP WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR
b) 3/4 CUP POWDERED SUGAR
c) 3/4 CUP FRESH MILK CREAM(OR 3/4 CUP COOKING OIL)
d) 3 EGGS
e) 1 TBSP BAKING POWDER
f) 1/2 TSP ENO (OR BAKING SODA)
g) 1/4 TSP ELACHI POWDER ( I DO NOT USE ESSENCE)
h) 3 TBSP BOURNVITA ( OR COCOA PWD)
METHOD
SIFT ITEMS a , b ,e , f IN A BOWL AND KEEP ASIDE.
BEAT THE EGGS TILL DOUBLE THE VOLUME. ADD CREAM AND WHISK AND ELACHI PWD. WHISK WELL. SLOWLY ADD CONTENTS OF BOWL . MIX WELL. ADD ITEM h. STIR LIGHTLY.
IN A PREHEATED OVEN, BAKE AT 180 DEGREES CELSIUS FOR 25 MINUTES.
HAPPY BAKING.
