My way : Chocolate cake

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
****************************************




(warning : hehe...I'm not responsible for any "misguided thot" on MY choc cake)
:-)



Its been a while since I last baked a cake so when Nazeem n his friend were here over the long weekend, I decided to make one..n Nazeem went "yea!" when i told him that..hehe..


I'd actually forgotten the basic recipe so had to look for a simple one over the net, but as usual, did it my way.. :-)






Ingredients :


1 cup of butter
3/4 cup of sugar
1/4 cup of cream cheese
2 eggs
1 cup of milk
(I used full cream evaporated milk)
1 teaspoon of vanilla
2 cups of all purpose flour
1 teaspoon of baking powder
2 tablespoon of cocoa powder
1 cup of chocolate chips


Method :

1 ~ Cream butter and sugar, then add the cream cheese, cream further.

2 ~ Add the eggs, milk and vanila

3 ~ Add in the flour, baking powder and cocoa powder.

4 ~ Add the chocolate chips.

5 ~ Fill into the tray (for cup cakes)

6 ~ Bake in pre-heated oven at 170C for 25 mins or until its cooked.






That night Nazeem helped me in mixing the ingredients and all, so its only fair that he got the first taste of it..






His friend, Hafiz was surprised to see my nephew helping me but in the end he joined as well!..hehe..








Told Nazeem that they could take back the balance to their school the next day, but he asked..."hehe...will there be any?"


(Still hot in the oven)




(Another batch)


True enough, when I woke up the next day, only about 1/3 of it left,
and they finished it off during breakfast! hehe..


"Che Na, can u please make cheese cake next time?"


oh oh...another round of fact@recipe finding mission on the net!


..haha..

Breakfast licin, mesti sedap tu. Based pada photo, nampak menarik cake choc ni dan resepi nya juga kelihatan mudah. Buat malam habis pagi, kalau buat pagi sah tak sempat ke petang dah habis. sedap..

Cheqna said...

hehehe Rad..so nice of u, bagi moral support..

mmg senang je main masak cincai2 ni..esp. bila ada budak yg tolong jagakan d mixer, aunty dia cuma keliling dapur mencari n masukkan bahan2..

n walla...jimat duit belanja dapur..haha..

nice recipe. i really like cakes with cream though, so i can smash it on someone face if they tries to take away my cake. =)

Zendra-Maria said...

What dah habis Cheqna, next time save some for me OK?

Cheqna said...

Cheqna said...

Aqua oh Aqua...should separate the ones for eating n ones for smashing...the smashing ones harder so that "berbaloi" (worth it)... :-)

mmm...very "bad" advice...hehehe..
