One very easy and very quick butter-free chocolate cake!
I’ve been using this recipe for nearly 20 years and it makes a great everyday cake – not rich and sugary, but with enough chocolate taste to satisfy!
Ingredients:
4tbsp cocoa powder
1 cup (160g) plain flour
3/4 cup (150g) sugar
1 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
1 egg
3/4 cup natural yoghurt (that’s 1 and 1/2 pots)
drop of vanilla essence
How to: Mix dry ingredients together, stir in lightly beaten egg and yoghurt until well blended. Pour into tin (dia approx 21cm) and bake at 160°c for 25 – 30 minutes
Enjoy with spoonful of crème fraîche or simply on its own.
A simple cake like this would be welcomed in our home.
Thanks
