My husband had asked me in advanced to make some treats for his medical tutorial group and of course I left everything to the last minute. So Sunday evening before heading out I had to quickly whip something up for all those hungry med students. I got this recipe from kidspot.com.au and it seriously was quick & easy to make. The recipe can be baked as either a cake or as cupcakes, here I went with the cupcake option just to do something different.
Ingredients:1 cup self-raising flour, sifted
1/3 cup cocoa powder, sifted
1 cup castor sugar
1/3 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup milk
2 eggs
Method:
- preheat oven to 180°C, grease a 24cm cake tin or prepare cupcake tin with patty pans
- beat sugar, butter and eggs together, add flour, cocoa and milk, mix well.
- pour batter into cake tin or prepared cupcake tin
- bake cake for 35-40mins or cupcakes for 12-15mins or until the cake springs back when lightly touched in the centre.
I like my cakes without icing, but if you wish to dress it up with icing go for it! Hope you enjoy this simple "go-to" chocolate cake recipe.
