Happy New Year 2010 - KUGAN 98


The power of God is with you at all times;
through the activities of mind, senses,
breathing, and emotions;
and is constantly doing all the work
using you as a mere instrument

FROSTED EGGLESS CHOCO CAKE

Ingredients:
2 cups self raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp baking soda
¾ cup cocoa powder
Sieve all the ingredients 3 times
1 ½ cups castor sugar

1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup milk
3/4 cup yogurt well beaten with ¼ cup of water
1 tsp of instant coffee mixed in ½ cup of hot water
1 tsp vanilla essence


Frosting:
3 tsp butter
80 grms chopped dark chocolate
100 grms of chopped milk chocolate
200 ml heavy cream
2 tsp vanilla essence
200 grms icing sugar

Method: Cake:

Preheat the oven to 160 degrees C
Grease a cake tin and line it with parchment paper.

Mix all the dry ingredients into a bowl.
Swift them well with a sptula and make a well in the centre.

Add the oil , hot coffee mix, milk, vanilla essence, yogurt,
one by one., with regular mixing after each incorporation.
Using a hand blender wisk the mix for about 1-to 2 minute,
until all the lumps are gone.

Pour into the greased tin and bake for about an hour or until the cake is cooked. Let the cake cool well before frosting the cake.
For Frosting:
Heat a saucepan filled upto ¾ full of water in a medium flame
and place another vessel over it.
Add the 3 tsp of butter, and once it begins to melt, add the broken chocolate pieces in batches and keep stirring until they all melt.

Add in the cream and the vanilla essence, and keep stirring.
Add in the icing sugar and stir for another 2 minutes.
Keep the frosting aside for little while until cools a bit
And starts hoilding itself.

Now apply the frostings according to your ability.
Since I am no expert, I just covered the cake,
and sprinkled the 1001 multi coloured stars.
Put some chocolate chips around.
