Moist Chocolate Cake (New Recipe)

I was trying to find a new recipe for Moist Chocolate Cake. I googled for it and I found this one blog, Love2cook Malaysia.  Looking at her recipe, it looks tasty and tempting. The recipe and the method looks quite easy to follow.

Therefore, I baked a Moist Chocolate Cake for my brother as he celebrate his 30th birthday. I was nervous at first to get the respond from the whole family, as this is  my 1st time trying this recipe.

To my surprise everyone was like " Punya sedap... macam mana ko buat ni?.. Sedap oh.. boleh jual suda ni..".. Haha..it was funny to see the reactions of each of them. Even my mom said," Boleh ka buat lagi saya mau kasi father..".. And I said.. "Bulih ba.. ".

To be honest this recipe is far more better than the moist chocolate cake recipe i baked before. The taste is just there, sweet and moist. No wonder everyone likes it. I like it too eventhough i am the one who baked it. Feels like it was baked by other people haha.. 

Okay here's the recipe.


Moist Chocolate Cake Recipe

Ingredients :~
  • 100gm all purpose flour
  • 50gm dark cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 180gm salted butter
  • 180gm fine granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • 200 ml evaporated milk ( I used Ideal ) 

Method :~ Pre-heat oven at 170 degree.
  1. In a bowl, sift together all purpose flour, cocoa, baking powder and soda.
  2. Using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until smooth.
  3. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add vanilla essence.
  4. Add evaporated milk and flour mixture gradually, continue beating using low speed until done and fully incorporated. Scrape the sides with a cake spatula.
  5. Pour batter in a 20cm lined cake tin, bake for 45 minutes at 170C. (oven temp may vary)
  6. The cake is done when a skewer or toothpick inserted comes out clean. 
  7. Cool on a wire rack. Add chocolate ganache or top with strawberries.

As for the topping i didn't follow the chocolate ganache recipe as in the blog i referred. It was because I don't have condensed milk at that time. 

Therefore i just use combine 100ml whipping cream and 150g chopped dark chocolate and melt together in a sauce pan. Let it cool for a while, then poured it on the cake.

 Just a simple deco for my bro's birthday. He was like " kenapa bunga ros warna pink?.." Haha.. itu saja la yg ada in-stock. Teda masa lagi pigi shop for the deco.. hehee.. :P


Oh my.. looks like I want to bake this cake again.. haha.. *craving again la tu *



Okay that's it for now. Have a fun week ahead. Go and try the recipe. No regret! hehe
I'm gonna stick with this recipe from now on.. :D
