Ingredients

Dry Ingredients :

  • 1 and 1/2 cups all purpose flour / maida ~200 gms
  • 3 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar ~165 gms [Increase it to 1 cup if you dont use choco chips]
  • 2 tablespoon chocolate chips

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1 cup water ~250 ml
  • 1/2 tablespoon vanilla essence
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice / white vinegar I used lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup oil ~60 ml

Instructions

  • Take water in a mixing bowl, add vanilla essence, sugar, lemon juice and oil. Mix well till sugar completely dissolves . Keep aside.
  • Now take flour, baking soda, baking powder and coco powder and sift together twice at least to make sure the flour, soda and baking powder and coco powder is evenly spread out.
  • Then slowly add the the sifted flour mixture to the wet ingredients mixture may be in 2 parts.
  • Gently mix in one direction, break the lumps, gently mix it to a runny batter.
  • Fold in choco chips and give a quick stir.
  • Preheat oven to 180 deg C for 10mins.
  • Grease the pan with butter, sprinkle maida tap it so that it spreads on all sides.
  • Pour the batter into the cake pan.
  • Bake it at 180 deg C for 35-40mins check with a fork if a fork inserted comes out clean.
  • Make sure to cool at least for 10-15 mins and then invert carefully and cut into pieces.
  • Enjoy Eggless Chocolate Cake!

Notes

  • When lemon juice reacts with baking soda it helps the cake to rise.
  • The mixing and measurements matters the most for the perfect moist cake.
  • Select the cake pan accordingly as the batter should be at least half of the pan when you pour it.
  • Using choco chips is purely optional but I recommend adding it.
  • If you don't add choco chips increase sugar to 1 cup.
