Definition of Alchemy – a seemingly magical process of transformation, creation, or combination
The ingredients in this cake do just that. The main ingredient is water. There are no eggs, butter or milk. The end result is the most gorgeous, moist chocolate I have ever eaten. Sorry other chocolate cake recipes, this one beats you all!
Water – 380ml
Sunflower Oil – 80ml
Vanilla Extract – 1 tsp
Mix together
Plain Flour – 370g
Baking Powder – 2 tsp
Caster Sugar – 240g
Cocoa Powder – 60g
Mix together
Gradually pour the water mixture onto the dry ingredients , mixing well with an electric mixer between each addition until everything is combined with no lumps.
Line the base of a 18-20cm springform cake tin and pour in the chocolate mixture.
Bake at 180 deg/GM4 for about 40 minutes.
I love it with some custard
Cool completely in the tin before turning out.
