Ingredients For Cake

Dry Ingredients

2 cups Cake Flour

2 cups Sugar

3/4 cups Cocoa Powder

2 teaspoons Baking Soda (not baking powder)

1 teaspoon Salt

Wet Ingredient

2 pieces Eggs

1 cup Milk

1 cup Vegetable Oil

1/2 cup Mayo

1 Tablespoon Instant Coffee dissolved in 1 cup Warm Water.

1 teaspoon Vanilla

Icing

1 can Condensed Milk

60 Grams Dark Chocolate

2 Tablespoons Cocoa Powder

pinch Salt

2 Tablespoons Butter

Procedure for the Cake

1. Preheat oven to 175 degrees Celsius. Combine dry ingredients and shift to remove lumps. Whisk with a wire whisk to combine all the dry ingredients.

2. Beat eggs, milk, oil and mayo until fluffy. Add coffee-water mixture and vanilla. Mix gently.

3. Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients 1/4 cup at a time with medium stirring, just enough to incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.

4. When all the dry ingredients are mixed into the wet ingredients, transfer in to 2 x 8 x 8 round baking pan. Give it a gentle tap just to remove some bubbles and give your batter at least 15 minute rest. (I usually rest my batter after giving it a few taps to give time for the bubbles at the bottom of the pan to rise.)

Pop in the oven and bake for 20 - 30 minutes or until inserted toothpick comes out clean. (Depends on load shedding pray it don’t happen in the first 15 min)

Cool the cakes on a wire rack for 30 minutes before removing the cake form the pan.

Procedure for the Icing

1. Cake need to be ice cold ( I let mine cool overnight and still place it in the freezer at least 30 min before I will ice it)

2. Combine the condensed milk, chocolate and cocoa powder in a pan. Heat over low heat with continuous stirring for 7 minutes. Add salt and stir for another 2 minutes. Then add the butter and stir for another 1 minute, all in all a 10 minute process. Pour over cakes while still hot.

3. I use a normal butter icing between the 2 layers.

4. Pour condensed milk mix over cake.
