progress in Wool eater
i am loving it :)
one repeat of all the colors i am gonna use, may be i shall do total of three repeats, lets see how things progress.
Here is what i did today, made a zebra cake
this is really very tasty and kids love the design, got the idea from http://www.sailajakitchen.com/2009/09/zebra-cake.html
the basic recipe is mine, got it from a friend.
Recipe for cake
You will need
A) 4 eggs,
3/4th cup ( about 250 ml level on a measuring jar ) powered sugar
3/4th cup ( 250 ml ) refined oil ( one can make with same quantity of butter for richer taste )
B) 2 1/2 ( two and a half ) cups Maida ( flour )
1/2 tsp baking power
3/4 tsp Meetha Soda ( soda bi carb )
Few drops of vanilla essence ( 2-3 drops )
Optional 5 tsp cocco for chocolate cake.
Seive all the ingridents in B 3- 4 times.
Mix A together till frothy ( one can use forks or wisp or beater ) and slowly beat in B.
Pre Heat Oven at about 350 C or te setting for baking.
Put the dough in lightly oiled pan and bake for about 30 mins, check with a tooth pick to see if its done ( the tooth pick should come out clean )
This is where i use my knitting pins :)
Now for Marvel cake or Zebra Cake, divide the dough in to 1/2 or the wayu would want ur cake to be, more chocolate and less vanilla or viza viz
Put cocco in one part, about 3-4 tsp if chocolate part is more, and mix well.
For marvel cake u can put the major part of dough first in the pan and then later add the lesser dough ( say the one which has cocco ) hapazardly in zigzag fashion and put it in the oven
hope you make this super eas cake and love it :)
For Zebra cake check out the site mentioned above, i am lazy in typing :o
