Chocolate Moist Cake

I took this recipe from my niece over the raya holidays. She bakes and sells cakes and buns and other stuff from home (I so envy her for being able to do that). Whenever we visit her we would have muffins and breads and buns all freshly made and still warm from the oven.

She baked this chocolate cake specially for us. Eirfan had 4 slices in a sitting - he is such a darling little devil around cakes, let me tell you - especially those dripping with chocolate toppings.

Here's how:

1 ¾ cups butter
1 ¼ cups sugar
4 eggs
¾ cup water mix with 1 tablespoon condensed milk
2 cups flour
1 table spoon baking powder
½ cup cocoa powder

1. Beat butter and sugar till light and creamy.
2. Mix in the eggs and water.
3. Mix in the rest of the ingredients.
4. Bake in a 180degrees celcius oven for about 45 minutes.


Choc topping
200g whipping cream
250g cooking chocolate
60g butter
Heat butter and the whipping cream (do not boil). Turn off the fire. Add in the chocolate. Stir till all chocolate melt. Pour on top of the cake (cool the cake a little bit first).

This recipe makes a 1 kg cake. Bon apetit!
