Eggless Chocolate Sponge Cake

I love baking cakes n cookies..Its so much fun to check out of the oven wht happened???

You Need
1/2 tin condensed milk (200gms)
2 3/4 cups plain flour (240gms)
40 gm cocoa
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda (soda bicarb)
2 tsp icing sugar
1/2 cup butter melted (60gms)
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
100 ml milk
100 ml Coke or Thums Up


Sieve flour, baking powder, baking soda,
sugar, cocoa all together 2 to 3 times.
Keep aside.
Pour condensed milk in a bowl. Add the
butter, and beat well till smooth. Add Vanilla essence.Add the
flour spoon by spoon, mixing into the
condensed milk mixture. In between,
add milk as required if the butter begins
to get too stiff. [Stir the mixture in one
direction only all the while. This will
incorporate more air and make the cake
lighter].
Once all the flour is used up, beat the
batter as above till light (5-7 minutes).
Add the coke or Thums Up and mix
gently till smooth.
Pour into a greased cake tin. Do not
smooth with a spoon etc. If the consistency
is right this will not be needed.
Pre-heat over to 300o c. Place tin inside.
Bake at 200o c for 5-7 minutes and
150o c till done. (35 to 40 minutes).

My Tip :-
You can top this with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce. Remember this would be yummy when the cake is still hot :)
choc sauce is quite easy to prepare - just add 3 spoons cocoa powder to hot water n heat for a while.
Ok next time i am gonna post a cake recipe that includes eggs.
