Chocolate Cake

Easy, moist and yummy chocolate cake recipe... Whenever I serve this to guest i'm always asked for the recipe. 


Ingredients:
1 1/2 Cups Self Raising Flour
3 Tablespoons Cocoa
1 Cup Caster Sugar
1 Cup Water
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Essence
1/2 Cup Oil

Step One:
Mix all dry ingredients together

1 1/2 Cups Self Raising Flour

3 Tablespoons Cocoa

1 Cup Caster Sugar

Step Two:

Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix with a hand whisk until smooth.

1 Cup Water

1 Teaspoon Vanilla Essence

1/2 Cup Oil

Step Three:

Line the base of cake tin with baking paper and grease cake pan before pouring mixture in.
 

Bake in a Pre-heated oven atr 180 for 35 - 40min.

You will know the cake is ready when you poke a skewer into the center of the cake and it comes out clean.

Step Four:

remove cake from tin straight after taking it from the oven and leave it to cool on a wire rack.

Once cooled completely you can ice your chocolate cake.

I use 2 teaspoons Melted butter

1 1/2 Cups Icing Sugar

1 Tablespoon Cocoa

1 - 2 Tablespoons Warm Water

If I have the time a butter cream icing goes great with this cake too!
