Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup neutral oil (e.g., vegetable or canola)
- 1/2 cup hot water
- 1/2 cup cold milk
- 1 tbsp vanilla essence
- 2 tbsp plain yogurt
Preparation:
Start by preheating your oven to 160°C (325°F) and greasing a cake tin. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil and hot water until well combined. Allow the mixture to cool slightly. Once cooled, add the cold milk, vanilla essence, and yogurt, mixing well after each addition.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking continuously until you achieve a smooth, lump-free batter. Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
For an extra indulgent touch, drizzle with chocolate ganache or your favorite chocolate sauce. This eggless chocolate cake is perfect for any occasion and is sure to impress with its moist, spongy, and rich texture.
Enjoy this delightful treat with a cup of coffee or tea, and don’t forget to share it with your loved ones!
