ചോക്ലേറ്റ് ഇല്ലാതെ ചോക്ലേറ്റ് കേക്ക് കൊക്കോപൗഡർ ക്രീം ബീറ്റർ ഓവൻ ബട്ടർ ചേർക്കാതെ CHOCOLATE CAKE

Eggs - 2 Powdered sugar - ½ glass Oil - ½ glass Maida / all-purpose flour - 1 glass Coffee powder - 1 tsp Baking powder - 1 ¼ tsp Salt - a pinch Milk - as per requirement COFFEE CREAM Water - 1 glass Maida / all-purpose flour - 1 tbsp Milk powder - 6 tbsp Instant coffee powder - 1 tsp Sugar - 4 tbsp SUGAR SYRUP Water Sugar - 2 tbsp Hi everyone, today let’s make an easy and delicious steamed chocolate cake recipe without using any cocoa powder.. To prepare the cake batter, break two eggs into a large bowl and add half a glass of powdered sugar and mix/whisk really well. Once the eggs and sugar is mixed well, in the same glass, add half a glass of sunflower oil and mix well with the eggs and sugar, and set aside. USE THE SAME GLASS TO MEASURE ALL THE INGREDIENTS. In another bowl, sift in the dry ingredients, which are, a glass of plain flour, a teaspoon of coffee powder, 1 ¼ teaspoon of baking soda and a pinch of salt. After you have mixed the dry ingredients well, add it into the egg mixture in batches and combine well.. After mixing the dry ingredients and the egg mixture well, add enough milk to adjust the consistency of the cake batter.. The batter should neither be too thick nor to runny.. Once the batter is ready, grease a cake tin or any steel vessel and pour the batter into it, filling up to half of it. After adding the batter to the tin, tap the tin gently to remove any excess air bubbles which are trapped inside. Next, cover the vessel or the cake tin with an aluminium foil and prick two holes on the foil. Next, transfer the cake tin into a steamer and let it steam for around one hour, or until cooked. You can do the doneness test after about 45 mins or so, using a toothpick or a skewer to see if the cake is cooked through completely. Next, to prepare the cream for the cake garnishing, into a saucepan add a glass of water and a tablespoon of plain flour and mix it really well until no lumps are left. Turn on the flame and bring it to a boil and add 6 tablespoons of milk powder, on a very low flame, until well combined. Once the mixture has thickened, add a teaspoon of instant coffee powder and mix well. I have used bru instant coffee powder, you can use any other instant coffee powder as per your choice. Next, add 4 tablespoons of sugar into the mixture and combine it well, And cook until the mixture thickens up and leaves the pan.. If your mixture doesn’t thicken up after cooking, you may add an extra three or two pinches of plain flour, until the mixture thickens up and leaves the pan. Once done, blend it in a mixer grinder to get a smooth and creamy consistency. Once the cake is cooked, turn off the flame and let the cake completely cool down completely.. To garnish the cake, cut the cake in half and soak each layer with sugar syrup.. The sugar syrup was prepared by melting 2 tablespoons of sugar in a little water.. After brushing the sugar syrup on both the layers, wait for one minute until the cake absorbs it all and then, apply a layer of the cream which was prepared and blended in the mixer jar.. Then place the other layer and cover the whole cake with cream and sprinkle some grated chocolate to finish it off! Let the cake chill in the refrigerator before you cut and serve. It is better if you have measuring cups and use it for this recipe. Make sure that you cover the cake with aluminium foil before steaming it, else the cake will be spoiled by all the vaporized water falling on it.. If you do not want to use coffee powder, you may use 2 teaspoons of cocoa powder instead of a teaspoon of coffee powder in the cake batter, and for the cream, you may use a desired amount of cocoa powder to give it the desired degree of flavour..
