The Quick Cake is a delightful treat that combines the buttery richness of Caramilk chocolate with the moist and tender texture of a homemade cake. This recipe is perfect for those who are looking for a quick and easy way to bake a luscious dessert that everyone will love.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, brown sugar, and eggs. Beat with a hand mixer or stand mixer at medium speed until well mixed, about 2 minutes.
- Slowly add the melted chocolate and butter mixture to the bowl and mix until fully incorporated.
- Add the milk and heavy whipping cream to the mixture and continue to mix until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose white wheat flour and self-raising flour.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding in gently with a spatula or spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin, spreading it evenly.
- Place in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Allow the cake to cool in the tin for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, you can serve the cake as is, or frost it with your favorite icing.
Tips:
- Make sure the butter is at room temperature before you start mixing, as this will help it blend more smoothly with the sugars.
- To prevent the cake from sticking, lightly grease your baking pan and line it with parchment paper.
- Sift the flours before adding them to the mixture to ensure a light and airy cake batter.
- Beat the eggs separately before adding them to the mix; this will incorporate more air and provide a better texture.
- Use a high-quality dark chocolate for the best flavor outcome.
- Don't overmix the batter; stop mixing as soon as the ingredients are combined to avoid a dense cake.
- Check the cake's doneness by inserting a toothpick or skewer into the center. If it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, the cake is ready.
Enjoy your Quick Cake with a cup of tea or coffee, or simply as a sweet indulgence on its own. This cake is sure to impress your family and friends, making it a fantastic choice for any gathering or special occasion. The rich combination of chocolate and caramel flavors will leave everyone asking for the recipe!
