Baking a Bliss : CakešŸŽ‚

Hello fellow bloggers.
Doing good.?

well i am back with my another creative day but this time i didnā€™t cook butā€¦ BAKE šŸ’—šŸ‘©ā€šŸ³

I baked a cake today for the very first time in my life. I watched a recipe on YouTube and followed it to bake a cake. I also took some help from my cousin because she is a pro at baking cakes. Now, let me tell you all how I made the cake.



At first Lets discuss the ingredients.


INGREDIENTS

FOR CAKE DOUGH

ā€¢All purpose Flour



ā€¢Cocoa powder



ā€¢Baking powder



ā€¢Egg



ā€¢Milk



ā€¢Icing sugar



ā€¢Vanilla essence



ā€¢Cooking oil
ā€¢Minor amount of Salt



FOR LAYERING

ā€¢Whipping cream



ā€¢Icing sugar
ā€¢Cocoa powder

FOR TOPPING

ā€¢Butter
ā€¢Dairy milk or any chocolate



PROCESS

First, I took out a spacious bowl so that I could prepare the mixture properly. I started by mixing the dry ingredients in the bowl. The primary dry ingredient is all-purpose flour, to which I added other dry ingredients. Next, I added cocoa powder and baking powder to the flour. After that, I added icing sugar and a pinch of salt, and mixed everything well.



Then, I added an egg to the mixture and mixed it thoroughly. After that, I poured in milk and cooking oil and whisked it all together until well combined.I added some amount of vanilla essence too. And thatā€™s how our mixture was ready.



Then, I took a baking pan and applied cooking oil to the base so that the cake wouldn't stick to the pan. Then i placed a butter paper on it. After that, I poured the mixture into a baking pan and placed it in the oven to bake at the required temperature. I covered the mixture with aluminium foil sheet.
I kept checking it periodically to ensure it was baking properly.




Once it was fully cooked through, I took it out of the oven.




After that, I needed to prepare the ganache, so I took whipping cream and started beating it with a beater. If I had continued to beat it like that, it would never have thickened. First, I took a bowl filled with ice and placed another bowl on top of it, in which I was to beat the cream, so that the base of the bowl stayed cold and the cream thickened quickly. Meanwhile, I kept adding cocoa powder to the cream along with the proper amount of sugar. Once the cream reached the desired consistency, I stopped beating it.






After that, I took the cake out onto a large plate and started with the layering and topping. I cut the cake horizontally into two parts and set the top layer aside. On the bottom layer, I first applied a bit of oil, then spread the whipped cream mixture on top. After that, I sprinkled chocolate chips over it. Then, I placed the second layer of the cake on top and repeated the same procedure.


Finally, I gave the cake an even look.Ta-Da..šŸ„®



It was utterly butterly delicious. The kids at home were very happy with my baking skills. I promised them that I would definitely make it again for them, and I really enjoyed baking. I have decided to continue this hobby and improve my baking skills.

So i will continue to share my baking skills as i polished them with time.

Take care till then.šŸ’
