My first cake

On Saturday I baked my first cake, a chocolate cake. 

 First I had to sieve the flour and the sugar.    


Then I mixed it up with coca powder and added the liquid ingredients.

.





I put it in the cake dish, ready to put in the oven 



 Then I sieved some icing sugar on the top of the cake - it was too hot to put icing on and we wanted to eat it .

I cut the first slice and gave it to my baby sister, Aimee.

It was fun making the cake, and it tasted very nice. The next day we put icing on the rest of the cake.

My Mom says I make the cake better than she does.

Here is the recipe:

CHOCOLATE CAKE 

Turn oven on 180C

750ml cake flour
500ml sugar
90ml sifted cocoa powder 
10ml bi-carbonate of soda
3ml salt 

Sift these ingredients together in a large bowl and make a hollow in the centre.

Beat the following ingredients together and pour into the hollow of dry ingredients:
150ml oil
30ml vinegar
10ml vanilla essence
500ml cold water

Beat until mixed and turn into a greased oven pan. 
Bake at for 50 minutes until a testing skewer comes out clean.

Can be eaten hot or cold, iced or served with ice cream or custard.

Enjoy!!!!
