Eggless Chocolate Cake

My mom is an amazing cook and she is famous among her friends to bake this cake. I tweaked her version and used some of the whole wheat flour instead of all purpose flour. This is a very safe baking option especially if you are scared of baking or have had some bad experiences. You don't need an electric mixer for this cake, all you have to do is mix the ingredients well with a whisk and you are all set. 



EGG LESS CHOCOLATE CAKE

1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp baking powder
1 cup yogurt
1 cup sugar (I used brown sugar)
1/2 cup Oil (Canola or Olive Oil)
2 tbsp Cocoa Powder
2 tbsp drinking chocolate
1 tsp vanilla essence
Milk (as needed, I generally add around 3/4 cup)

Preheat oven to 350 F and grease the baking pan with oil.

Mix sugar and yogurt in a bowl and keep it as is until you prepare other ingredients.

In a separate bowl mix all dry ingredients. Add oil to yogurt and sugar and whisk to form a smooth mixture.  

Start adding dry into the wet ingredients with little milk at a time and  stir until all ingredients are moistened.  Add essence to this mixture and stir gently. 

Pour this mixture in the prepared pan. Bake for about 50-55 minutes. Insert a tooth pick in the center of the bread, if it comes out clean your cake is ready. 

Note: You can also add nuts or chocolate chips to this cake.
