Eggless Butterless Chocolate Cake Recipe | Eggless Bakes Recipes

Eggless Butterless Chocolate Cake was simply chocolicious. A cake free of butter and egg with full of chocolate flavour is definitely one of the best. Cakes are obviously something of a challenge for new bakers and when they work, its so wonderful. So, its like baking a lot and measuring right gets you the best cake from the oven.  I left it a little longer which caused slight cracks on the top. Being a kind of tea cake , it was fine. Enjoy the richness of chocolate with this cake and thanks to priya for this good recipe.

2. In a mixing bowl, add curd, powdered sugar and vanilla essence. Whisk well for 2-3 minutes til they turn creamy.

3. Add baking powder, baking soda. Mix well for few seconds and leave it to set for 2 minutes. You will find bubbles on the batter after 2 minutes. Add oil and mix well. Now, add the dry ingredients little by little and just mix well until the flour is completely mixed.

4. Transfer the batter to the prepared cake tin and bake for 10 minutes in 200 degree C and then reduce the temperature to 180 degree C and bake for 40-45 minutes or check after 30 minutes by inserting a toothpick in the centre and it comes out clean. Remove the cake tin from oven and let it cool for ten minutes in the tin. Then remove from the tin and let it cool in the cooling rack for 10 minutes. Add chopped walnuts on the top.

Notes:

• Adding walnuts is a option. 
• Bring curd to room temperature before starting with the recipe.
• Adding instant coffee powder enhances the flavour.
