- Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F or 180 degrees C
- First, lets start with our wet ingredients. Take a mixing bowl and add yoghurt, oil, water and vanilla essence. Add sugar and mix well till sugar dissolves fully
- Now lets concentrate on the dry ingredients. Take the allpurpose flour, corn flour, baking powder, baking salt in a sieve and then add the corn flour and pass through the sieve so that all the dry ingredients are mixed well
- Add the dry flours to the wet ingredients little by little and keep folding them gently until they all are mixed well and finally add vinegar and give one last stir. Vinegar reacts with baking salt and makes the cake more spongy and salt
- Then add chopped nuts and fold them together. Pour this in a greased cake tin and gently tap it so that the cake batter is evenly spread in the cake tin
- Bake it in the oven for 20 minutes and make sure the tooth pick comes out clean if you insert. Keep the baked cake in the cooling rack and allow it to cool. Decorate the cake as per your wish. I have done decoration with icing cream and placed a cherry on top of it. I found it very hard to keep my kids away till I finished with my photographing. They are very eager to taste the cake and also the cherry attracted them so much. Finally we can cut our cake in rectangular or triangular piece and serve the cake
- We can also make cupcakes out of this same batter and just add 1/4 cup of choco chips. For cupcakes, we need to take cupcake mould and line it with cupcake liner or we can also grease the mould and pour this batter and bake it to get lovely cup cakes.
- The scrumptious and spongy Eggless Chocolate Cake is now ready to serve!
