This is great cake for all occasions, and a cake that is Dairy Free! This is a cake that the whole family will love - it has a lovely dark colour (thanks to the lemon juice / cider vinegar), and is not too dense. It is perfect for family get togethers, pot luck dinners, school lunches etc. and can easily be put into muffin cases instead of cake tin. Hope you enjoy our recipe as much as we do! Enjoy! Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups self-raising flour |
1 cup plain flour |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1/2 cup cocoa |
3/4 cup boiling water |
3/4 cup cold water |
2 teaspoons vanilla essence |
3/4 cup oil |
2 eggs |
Directions:
1. Combine dry mix and wet mix - mixing until smooth. (You can afford to be a LITTLE generous with liquid measurements (for a extra moist cake), but NOT the dry measurements!).
2. Pour into greased tin and bake for 170 deg C, for 55mins, or until you can poke it with a knife and it comes out clean.
3. To decorate you can ice as normal, OR lay out strips of baking paper on top of the cake, then sift icing sugar over top of the cake, lift the baking paper off slowly (strip by strip) and then you will have a pretty pattern.
4. Pattern ideas:.
5. A letter (i.e of someones name).
6. Randomly space them out.
7. Checks.
8. Stripes.
9. Love heart.
