What Ingredients To Bake A Cake?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Different people have their own recipes and they all taste great. I have found my grandmother's recipe the best. I bake it as it is and slice it with tea or use this recipe as a base for making other cakes like chocolate cake, cinnamon, coffee and almond. It is also very easy.

    Ingredients:
    2 cups plain flour
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 cup sugar
    4 eggs
    1 cup oil
    1 tablespoon milk

    Method:
    Process oil and sugar together to make a smooth paste. Then add eggs and beat well until smooth. Now, sift the flour and baking powder together and fold into the egg/sugar/oil mixture. Add milk.
    Bake for 30-40 minutes at 350oC.

    To make chocolate cake:
    Add 1/2 cup cocoa powder to the flour before sieving it.

    For coffee cake:
    Dissolve a teaspoon of coffee in the milk before adding it to the cake mixture.

    Cinnamon:
    Sieve a teaspoon of cinnamon powder with flour. It tastes especially good with some honey and cinnamon tea and is very light and refreshing.

    Almond:
    Just plonk in a handful of peeled and chopped almonds, that have been soaked in water overnight, into the batter. Decorate the top with some almond halves before baking.

    Well, so much for globalization. My family secrets in your kitchen. Have fun! :)
