EASY CHOCOLATE CAKE

INGREDIENTS

all-purpose flour    2 cups

granulated sugar    1 cup

baking pdr.   11/2  tsp

unsweetened cocoa    1/4 cup

fresh yoghurt    1/2- 3/4 cup 

milk    1/2- 3/4 cup 

vanilla essence  1 tsp

METHOD

Preheat the oven to 180 deg. C. Grease a  baking dish  and flour lightly.  

 In a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, cocoa, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 cup yoghurt and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; blend with an electric beater on medium speed until well combined.  

Check if the batter falls down slowly from the spoon, when you count till 5. if it falls down quickly, then you need to add some flour, if too slow, then add some more milk & yoghurt.

 Pour the batter into the baking dish. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

 Let cool completely.  

ps- whenever I've used yoghurt/ buttermilk, I've found the cakes to be soft.

I don't like cakes to be too sweet, so those prefer it sweeter, may add more sugar. Also, I'm not fond of frosting/ icing on cakes, as it adds to more calories !
