Moist Chocolate Cake and Awards!

Moist Chocolate Cake! Wow! My first attempt in preparing cake! Oh my God! To be true, it turned out successful! It taste really good and awesome! May be its a simple task for the daring bakers but for me its a great thing! I was crossing my fingers for the whole time that the cake took to bake in the oven! My heart beat slightly started to beat fast when the cake started to raise in the tin and I become much tensed and my body started to sweat and I started to pray God that the cake should not overflow out of the tin. Once the cake stopped to raise, i felt as i have got one more chance to take birth and live in this world. Anyways, it came out too good and i started to serenade for the cake! And now coming to my recipe....


Ingredients:

All Purpose Flour - 3 cups
Sugar - 2 cups
Water - 2 cups
Oil - 1/2 cup or 8 tbsp
Cocoa Powder - 6 tbsp
Baking Soda - 2 tsp
Vanilla Essence - 1 tbsp
White Vinegar - 2 tbsp
Salt - 1/2 tsp



Cooking Instructions:

Sift all purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda,and salt together in a bowl (let's call this mixture as dry flour mix). Whisk the sugar, water, vanilla essence, vinegar and oil in another bowl until the sugar is dissolved well. Now add the dry flour mix in this mix slowly and beat well until no lumps are found.



Preheat the oven to 350F. Pour the batter into a greased and floured pan. Bake it for about 35 to 40 minutes. The cake will be slightly moist when tested with a tooth pick.

Recipe adopted from here. Thanks for such a lovely recipe Chow times!

Event for the Month of September and the Theme is Chicken

I thank all my blogger friends first of all, who wished for my son Amiitesh's birthday and he enjoyed a lot on that day with all my relatives and particularly during the function time. Amiitesh got up by 5.15am itself on that day and went to bed only by 11pm and he don't want to miss to play with his grand parents and uncles. He was very eager to cut the cake from the time we received it from the bakery. He looked so smart on that day and we had a blast of happiness. He was more eager to see the gift packs he received for his birthday and started playing with them immediately as soon as we unpack the gifts. And thank you all again who showered my son with their blessings. Feeling very happy again today in Announcing the event for the month of September and the theme is "Chicken" , which is all time favorite for everyone of us. So, come out with all your chicken recipes and am awaiting eagerly for your spicy entries. Last month during Ice Creams and Milkshakes Event, i
