Chocolate Cake hai Khaana, toh khud banana :)

Thanks to @ohayesha who baked a cake for her friends birthday and twitpic-ed it. That just could not stop me from being tempted and I rushed into kitchen for baking one for myself. And, my cousins somehow smelled that I was going to bake a cake and they showed up on the door. :D And rest as they say, is History.

 Brownie Hot Chocolate Cake.

Ingredients:

All purpose flour (maida)- 1 and 1/3 cup,
Sugar- 1 and half cup,
cocoa powder- 4 tablespoons,
Baking powder- 1 teaspoon,
Vanilla Extract- 1 teaspoon,
Butter- 3/4th cup,
Some boiling water,
Eggs- 3,
Choco chips,
Chopped walnuts - to garnish.

Method:

•  In a bowl, mix flour, add sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder and vanilla extract.
•  In another bowl, beat eggs, butter and boiling water together.
• Now, mix all the ingredients to make a smooth batter, beat for few minutes.
• Add choco chips and nuts.

For Frosting,

 

Let the cake cool first, then, cook some condensed milk and chocolate powder for a few minutes until the consistency become pourable. Pour on the cake and do some art work of your choice with chocolate sauce.

The Out come:

The Fiasco: When I took the cake out of oven, it was liquid from the center. It looked like a well. When I put it in the oven again, I was sure it is waste. and will turn hard now. But somehow, it survived. Thank god for that. :)

P.S. I loved the cake so much that I could not decide which picture to put on. So uploaded all of them. :D
