This rich chocolate cake infused with cocoa and yogurt will bring a chocolate lover's dream come true!
preparation time : 15 minutes
Cook time : 45 minutes
Total time : 1 hour
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup coco powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup thick dahi (fresh yogurt)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup oil (vegetable/canola/olive)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 1/4 cup hot water
For Garnishing -
- cherries
- Walnut pieces
Method :
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare 9" cake pan by buttering/greasing and lightly flouring.
- For the cake:
- Add all purpose flour, coco powder and salt to a large bowl. Stir through flour mixture until combined well.
- In a large bowl, take yogurt and sugar. Beat on medium speed by using hand mixture until combined well.
- Then, add baking powder and soda and again beat on high speed until you see the bubbles.
- Then add oil and vanila essence and flour mixture, mix together and beat on medium speed until well combined. If the batter is too thick then add little hot water (near about 1/4 cup).
- Beat on high speed for about 1 minute to add air to the batter.
- Pour the cake batter evenly in the prepared cake pan. Garnish with some walnut pieces.
- Bake first for 10 minutes on 400 degrees F and then for 30-35 minutes on 350 degrees F or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for 15 minutes and then turn over the cooling rack and cool completely.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI tried the receipe, however the cake didn't fluff up as shown in the photo.. Baking soda was excluded..may be because of that..
thanks Megs for trying.. sorry about not fluffed...yes here in this cake the combination of baking soda and baking powder works great!!!!!
DeletePics looks tempting ..can this be prepared using pressure cooker ?
ReplyDeletethanks Juhie... Yes this can be prepared using pressure cooker...
Deletehow much gram used for 1 1/2 cup ??? i tried .. but it came very hard.can you pls tell me ..whats the problem ...I am using pressure cooker and electric stove.. so i cant figure out degrees.
ReplyDeleteHi Sandiya....I think 1 cup all purpose flour is 125 grams..so 1 and cup would be near about 185-195 grams.....if you are using pressure cooker then put it on high heat for first 10 minutes and rest on medium-low flame for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Deletewhat if i make the cake in a microwave?
ReplyDeleteIf I MAKE IT IN A MICROWAVE WILL IT MAKE A DIFFERENCE? AND I GUESS 5 MINS IS ENOUGH FOR COOKING RIGHT??
