Hello all Steemit Foodies!
As soon as I saw this contest I decided to take part in it as I already have a youtube channel and upload videos here. This recipe is exclusively prepared for the Steemfoods-recipevideo contest.
I was not sure what to prepare then asked my 12 yrs old son, he immediately replied " Make Chocolate Cake, it's my favourite"
I have prepared different types of cake but this was the first time Walnut Choco Cake!
Baking needs some practice, initially need to measure the ingredients but as we become used to baking no measurement required. In this recipe, I didn't measure the ingredients and all taken by experience but the result was awesome. But here I will mention the quantity of all ingredients and complete procedure.
Ingredients required
- Whole wheat flour 1.5 cups
- Powdered sugar 3/4 cup ( More or less as per your taste)
- Soy milk powder 1/4 cup ( Instead of this any plant-based milk can be used)
- Cocoa powder 1/2 cup
- Vegetable oil 1/4 cup
- Walnut 2-3 nos
- Dark compound/ Dark chocolate grated1/4 cup
- Salt 1 tsp
- Vinegar 2 sp
- Baking soda and baking powder 1tsp each
- Water or plant-based milk
Procedure
- Mix all dry ingredients except baking powder and baking soda.
- Make a uniform dry mixture
- Add vegetable oil
- Add water slowly with continuous stirring to make a free-flowing batter. Avoid adding excess water as it may become too liquid. Instead of water, any plant-based milk can be used.
- Add 2 tsp vinegar
- Mix vigorously the batter to make it fluffy.
- Preheat the oven at 180° C
- Grease the baking tray or use the butter paper.
- Now just before baking add baking powder and baking soda and mix slowly for a minute.
- Pour half of the batter in the tray then put grated dark chocolate and again pour the remaining batter.
- Garnish with walnut pieces.
- Bake for about half an hour.
- Cooldown to room temperature.
