Suzette's Parenting and Breastfeeding Blog | Moist Chocolate Cake

Lately, I have been into baking my own cakes, although I am still not good at it. :p

After failing a few times, I found this moist chocolate cake pre-mix, so I made this moist choc cake below:

The pre-mix is just so simple, so I added chopped walnuts in the mixture, and then put some choc chips on top. Woo hoo! It turned out yummy!

And then later, I found this very healthy vegan moist chocolate cake from chowtimes. It is an extremely easy to bake cake, with very little ingredients. I baked one on Sunday, brought a piece to the office for my colleague, she loved it! She is very picky in desserts, and she liked it, so I think I passed the test.

Here is the very easy recipe.

(A)
3 cups of flour
2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoon cocoa powder

(B)
2 cups water
2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla (I used only 1/2 spoon, coz I don’t like vanilla)
2 tablespoon vinegar (I substituted with lemon juice - required for its acidity to react with baking soda)
8 tablespoon oil (I used olive oil)

Method
Mixed (B) until sugar melted.
Pour mixture (B) into (A), mix well.
Optional: you may add chopped nuts into the mixture, and then topped with choc chips. I love this combination.
Pout into baking pan, baked 35-40 min at 180c

My sister prefers the pre-mixed type as it is less chewy. Yup, this recipe above is a bit more chewy. If you don’t like the chewy type, then this is not for you. Ian LUUUUVVVVS both types. He walloped 3-4 pieces right after I cut them. My choc cake disappears very quickly, unlike the other types.

p/s: my camera is still in repair. will update with photos later, for the recipe above. The cake looks more moist than the one above (pre-mix type).
