Baking Chocolate Cake Recipe

Hello to everyone who is reading this!

 

Today I decided  to post one of my favourite recipes which is actually very easy to make and tasty. Its a chocolate cake with cream! (YUM!)

Ingredients:

175g Sugar

175g Butter

3 Eggs

175g Self raising Flour

2 Tablespoons Cocoa Powder

1 Teaspoon Baking powder

1 table spoon Milk (optional for a runnier texture)

For the cream:

Elmlea double cream

2 tablespoons of Icing powder

 

Method:

1. First preheat the oven to Gas Mark 5 and line two equal size tins with grease proof paper. (If you don't have any then grease the tin with extra butter!)
2. Then mix all the dry ingredients together (flour, sugar, cocoa powder and baking powder) in a bowl
3. Later, stir in the butter and crack the eggs.
4. If the texture is thick you may want to add in the milk and stir.
5. Place the mixture in the tins at equal amounts
6. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes
7. Prepare the cream by whisking it until the texture is firm.
8. Stir in the icing powder to sweeten
9. Once cake is ready spread the cream in the middle and all over the cake. Pipe to finish!

Enjoy! :)
