Eggless Chocolate Cake
This is the first attempt at making an eggless cake adapted from a Chinese cookbook Dessert’s Temptation with slight modification. I must say this is a very simple and delicious Eggless Chocolate Cake. The cake is not only fragrant and chocolately, it is also not very dense and tastes like brownie. You can even mix some chopped walnuts into it. I made them into small cakes for shorter baking time but you can bake it in a 7 x 2 inches cake pan or a rectangular one. Try not to add the batter to too high, about 2 inches is just nice as the longer it takes to bake, the cake will becomes dry. Come let’s enjoy this small cake with chocolate sauce or vanilla ice cream. I guarantee you, no one can tell this is an eggless cake ๐
