Chocolate - The Sweet Temptation

Who likes chocolate? Most of the time the answer is: "ME"!!!!!

When it's party day around the house the question is always the same: "What cake do you want?" The answer is almost always the same "chocolate, but made by you!" That sweet temptation that is chocolate!

Here at home birthday cakes have to have a homemade taste. The ones made in a bakery are not very appreciated, and those beautiful and magnificent ones, full of prettiness and that are a pain to eat, are not very appreciated either.

This time it was my oldest who had a birthday and asked me for a chocolate cake to take to school, but with the caveat "don't forget it can't be with eggs", because a little friend in the class is allergic to eggs. And so I did, a #chocolate #cake without #egg!

The first time I had to make the cake to take to school I didn't have the recipe for the eggless cake, but I did some research and there I found some recipes. As I never follow just one recipe, I put some ingredients from one and others from another and there I managed to arrive at the ideal recipe, at least here at home.

"But don't think that it was at the first time that I arrived at the ideal recipe! Only after a few times of making the eggless cake did I manage to fine-tune the quantities and ingredients needed to get to this version!".

But easy! The recipe is very #simple and makes a very #tasty cake.

Curious? So let's get to the recipe for the Eggless Chocolate Cake

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups of flour

2 cups sugar

1 1/2 cups powdered chocolate

1 cup oil (I always use sunflower oil)

2 cups milk

1 shallow dessert spoon of baking powder

Nutella for the topping the cake q.b.

Preparation:

Place the liquid ingredients in a bowl first and beat until well mixed. Add the remaining ingredients, leaving the yeast for the end, and beat everything very well again.

Grease a baking pan with butter and flour and bake in the oven at 180º, approximately 25 to 30 minutes.

Let it cool and unmold.

When completely cooled, cover the cake with melted Nutella (to make it easier to spread). Garnish the cake to your liking.

Simple, isn't it?
