The only cake recipe you'll need - ever

This All Things Cake is indulgent and decadent. Made using our unsweetened cocoa powder which has a balanced chocolate taste and great solubility.

Ingredients:

• All purpose flour - 1 ½ cups 
• All Things Non Alkalised Cacao Powder - ½ cup 
• Caster sugar - 1cup 
• Raw cane sugar - ½ cup 
• Baking powder - 1 ½ tsp 
• Unsalted butter - 185g
• Milk - 1 cup
• Vinegar - 1 tbsp
• Eggs - 2 no.

Method:

• Mix milk and vinegar together in a bowl and leave it aside to curdle. This is what makes this cake super moist.
• Cream the butter and sugar together in a separate bowl and keep whisking until it looks pale.
• Add one egg at a time and continue to whisk. You can use an electric hand whisk or a stand mixer to combine everything.
• Pour the curdled milk and vinegar mixture into the creamed butter, sugar & eggs. Mix it well, your batter will look a bit curdled but that’s just how its supposed to be.
• Sift all the dry ingredients and give the entire mixture one last whisk and finish it by scraping the sides of the bowl and fold the batter till all the ingredients have mixed in properly.
• Line 2 half kg round tins with butter and dust a little flour, this is to ensure the cake doesn’t stick to the sides of the tin.
• Divide the batter into half and pour it into the prepared tins.
• Preheat the oven at 180°C for 10 mins. Bake at 180°C for 25 mins.
• Let the cakes cool completely before layering.
