Egg-less Vanilla Cake
Ingredients
1 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp - Plain Flour
2 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Baking Soda
1 tin (400 gm) Condensed Milk
1 stick Butter
3/4 cup Milk
4 tbsp Yogurt
2 tsp Vanilla Extract
In a mixing bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and baking soda
Mix it well. In another bowl, mix butter, condensed milk, yogurt, vanilla extract and milk
Mix it well to make sure there are no lumps
Add the flour mixture to the liquid mixture little by little
Each time beating it well to make sure there are no lumps
I used a 9 inch cake pan, it however was a little small
So I suggest using a 10 inch cake pan
It is generally suggested to fill the cake pan 3/4th fulh
so that there is enough space for the cake to rise.Grease the cake pan well
This is important to make sure the cake does not stick to the pan
Grease it well and you can also use waxing paper after greasing
Pour the cake mix in to it. Set the over to 150C and bake for one hour
Your cake is done when a toothpick comes out clean from the center of the cake
Let the cake cool for 10 -15 minutes
Turn it over in to a turntable or a flat surface
Let the cake cool for 10-15 minutes
Snake Shape
To get the snake shape, make a circle in the cake using any container top
Press it in to form the impression. Using a knife dipped in hot water, cut along the impression you made
Once this is done. Make horizontal cuts on the hollow cake to get two semi circles
Now you have all the pieces needed for the cake
Refrigerate the cake before you frost it
This is important so that the frosting sticks to the cake
Thin layer of chocolate frosting :
You can totally skip this if you want to go for just one layer of frosting.
Ingredients
2 pints low fat whipping cream
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups confectioner's sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp coconut extract
Mix the whipping cream and cocoa powder and sugar together.
Beat to make sure there aren't any lumps.
Use less whipping cream and add more depending on the consistency.
The recipe i followed suggested three pints whipping cream and my frosting became too thin.
Once your frosting becomes thin, adding more sugar does not thicken it.
So add less whipping cream and add more if the frosting is too thick.
Add more/less cocoa and sugar based on how the frosting tastes.
Skip the coconut extract if you don't like coconut.
Take the cake out from the refrigerator and after making sure that is not warm anymore, apply the frosting on top of it. Keep the cake in the snake formation and apply frosting all over the cake.Use a spatula for ease. Else use anything that has a flat surface that you can use to spread the frosting. Spread the frosting all over the cake. Refrigerate again
Second layer of chocolate frosting
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup confectioner's sugar
2-3 tbsp cocoa
3 tbsp evaporated milk
3 tbsp butter
Mix them well together to avoid lumps.
Mix until you get a creamy mixture.
Add more sugar and cocoa to make the frosting thicker if needed.
Like the previous time, spread the frosting evenly over the entire cake with a spatula.
