My daughter came home for the holidays and I made one of her favourite moist chocolate cakes. Don't be fooled by the appearance of this cake. It tastes fabulous and is very easy to make. Top it with chocolate ganache and it's even more yummy. A lot of my friends ask for the recipe after tasting it and I gladly share it with them.
This recipe is from my sister-in-law Vivien who is a good cook and also bakes delicious and beautiful cakes.
Moist Chocolate Cake
6 3/4 oz. plain flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp sodium bicarbonate
1 tsp salt
2 1/2 oz cocoa powder
1 tsp vanilla
12 oz. caster sugar
8 oz. corn oil
8 oz. evaporated milk
8oz. hot water and 3 tsp. nescafe - mix and let cool
2 eggs
1) Mix all ingredients together and use only hand whisk to combine them.
2) Batter is very watery.
3) Line the pan with baking paper and brush with butter.
4) Bake it in 9 1/2" pan at 160-170 deg. C for about one hour. Check your cake after 50 mins. by testing
with a skewer and if it comes out clean then it is done. It would be easier to bake the cake in 2 separate
7" x 3.5" cake tins.
5) Make sure the cake is complete cool before you overturn the cake otherwise it will crumble.

Su-Yin will love this moist chocolate cake! thanks for sharing.
I am sure she will. Make sure you put chocolate ganache on top. She can even make it herself with a little supervision from you.
