Eggless Chocolate Cake

I straight away wrote down yoghurt in my shopping list after I saw the cake at Ijan's house but there were just too many hurdles to get it done. I am so glad I finally get to make it tonight and actually it took me only about 10 minutes to prepare it. I was so surprise by the outcome .... very rich, super moist and most of all crazily delicious! Thanks Ijan for sharing such a delectable recipe.

Here is the recipe which I rewritten for my own ease of reference. You can check the original recipe by Ijan here.

(Makes thin 8" round)
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup Flour*
1/2 tsp BPowder*
1 tsp BSoda*
6 tbsp Cocoa Powder*
3/4 cup Caster Sugar* (* Mixed) 
1/2 cup Oil
1 tsp Coffee + 1/4 cup Hot Water
1/4 cup Milk
1/4 cup Yoghurt
1 tsp Vanilla Essence

METHOD:
1. Preheat oven at 170C.

2. Mix all ingredients marked*.
Add in the rest ingredients one by one by order.
Use hand whisk to mix until well combined.

3. Bake for 30 min.
Cool & cover with frosting.
(Below is the original frosting recipe from Ijan but I did not use it. Mine is simply a mixture of condensed milk & milo).

FROSTING:
3 tbsp Marg/Butter
1 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar
1/4 cup Cocoa Powder
3-4 tbsp Milk
a. In a medium size bowl add the margarine, powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Start beating with an electric mixer on low speed. At this stage it may seem to be very dry. Don’t panic. Wait until you add the milk.
b. Add milk little by little and continue beating the mixture till you get a nice spreadable consistency.
Now transfer the cake to a plate and start frosting it.
c. Cool down in fridge for at least one hour (the texture of the frosting will look better after at least one hour in fridge).

    Dari pengalaman, kek ni tak boleh buat tebal2 sebab bancuhan tanpa telur ni berat sikit dari biasa. Sila ikut saiz tin yg di cadangkan. Kalau anda ikut resepi dgn betul, iaitu bahan2 & sukatan & cara2 di atas, insyallah takda masalah. Ramai sgt yg dah cuba & berjaya. Harap terus mencuba.

  7. Salam Roz..
    What if i keep the cake in the fridge for more than 1 hour? will it harden the texture of the cake? coz i'm thinking of baking it after sahur for breaking fast desert..

    tqvm..zai

  8. Dear Zai,
    Typically cake will get harden when refrigerated but back to original texture after left at room temperature for a while. Some people like it chilled but my hubby prefers room temperature cakes. So, I don't see much problem refrigerating cakes if you like the texture as such.
