Ultra Moist Chocolate Cake from Maria's Menu

Hello Friends,


Here is a wonderful recipe from Maria's Menu. I guess almost everyone from the blog world tried it and now it is my time to post about it. We absolutely loved it and so did my neighbors... lol


One of the best recipes and I am going to keep making it. Thanks Maria :)


So, without further ado, here is the delicious recipe.


Ultra Moist Chocolate Cake
Recipe Source: Maria's Menu
Ingredients

Milk – 1 1/2 cups
Butter – 100 gms (1/3 cup + 2 tbsp approx)
Oil – 1/4 cup (I used olive oil)
Coco Powder – 1/2 cup ( I used Hershey’s)
Self Raising Flour – 1 cup (to get 1 cup self-raising flour, add 1 1/2 tsp baking powder+ 1/4 tsp salt to 1 cup all purpose flour. (source)
Egg – 1 beaten, room temp
Baking Soda – 1/2 tsp
Sugar – 1 cup + 2 tbsp

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degree F and grease your cupcake pan (it will make about 12 cupcakes)
  2. Mix the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
  3. Heat together butter, milk, oil and coco powder in a pan till butter melts and let it cool down to room temperature.
  4. Beat the egg and mix it with wet ingredient and then dry ingredients till everything is well incorporated.
  5. Pour it about 3/4 full in cupcake pans (feel free to bake it as a cake) and bake for about 25 min. or till a toothpick inserts comes out clean.
  6. Let them cool completely before you take them out as they are very moist and may break apart (it happened with me).

Serving
Feel free to serve them topped with any frosting or ganache you like.
