Get Going....

My friend used to always tell me to jot down what it comes to my mind, but I never thought that I will write a blog.. Thanks to everyone who have encouraged me & help me creating this blog...

When I was not into IT profession, I always used to always think, that writing a blog is not my cup of tea, but slowly I realized that instead of just sharing my ideas, I can simply note down..

In this forum I would like to share my ideas,experiences.. Sometimes we refer books, online recipes & follow. But the main technique is not given anywhere.. And then we get stuck..

Choco chips cake!!!!!!

serves 5 -6

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cup all purpose flour ( Maida)
1 cup powdered sugar
3/4 cup white butter( unsalted & melted)
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda/ Soda bi-carb
3 tsp Coco Powder
2 tsp Coffee 
3 large eggs
1 tsp Vanilla Essence
2 tsp choco chips
Milk as required to adjust consistency

Method :

1. Sieve all purpose flour, coco powder, baking powder, baking soda & coffee.
2. Sieve powdered sugar & keep it aside.
3. Separate the yolk and white of the egg.
4. Beat the egg whites in a clean bowl till stiff.
5. Beat the butter till light. 
6. Add the butter and yolk one at a time beating well, till mixture becomes smooth.
7. Add sugar and beat till light.
8. Add egg white.
9. Add flour  and cocoa mixture two to three spoons at a time.
10. Add milk and mix via cut and fold method.
11. Lastly add vanilla essence.
12. Preheat the Microwave convection for 180 C & bake the cake for 25 mins.
13. Grease & dust the aluminium cake tin & keep it ready with cake batter.
14. Preheating the convection for 180 C means it will heat the coil inside & it should be empty. Once its preheated, it will beep for 6 times, open the door & keep the prepared tin & again set convection mode for 180 C for 40 minutes & press start button. 
15. Sometimes it may take 30 mins to bake the cake based on the make of the convection. After 20 mins insert toothpick to check the doneness.. If the cake is not done, then do not panic... Keep for 5 -8 mins more to bake from inside..
16. Remove the cake from the convection & keep for 10 mins to cool.

Baking Tip - Use cocoa powder instead of flour for dusting a greased pan when making a chocolate cake.
