Preparation light chocolate cake

Before you start baking the delicious airy Polish chocolate cake, I would like to give you a small tip, actually it is two tips. I myself do not use margerine as it is a leftover product that is made from oil (non-edible oil that is). In addition, the whole cry to limit cholesterol has long since become obsolete and cholesterol appears to be good.

Everyone decides that for themselves, of course, but we haven't used marginrine for years. Because this recipe specifically uses an oil-containing ingredient, I chose to use (coconut) oil. However, you can go in all directions with it and just use a different (natural) type of oil. I don't recommend using butter, because butter is a different substance.

My second tip :When baking with cocoa, always use the highest quality cocoa you can find. Abroad, it is always recommended to use the high-quality Dutch cocoa and I prefer Van Houten cocoa. I have been using this for all my chocolate recipes for years and I am very satisfied with it. The cocoa has a delicious deep chocolate taste.

Alright, enough chatter, let's get on with the recipe so you can enjoy a delicious cup of coffee at the end of the morning with a piece of airy chocolate cake. If you prefer a somewhat fuller taste and a more 'wet' cake, I recommend that you also make a delicious banana chocolate cake. It has a slightly fuller taste and the bananas used underline the chocolate flavor perfectly.

  • 250 gr Margerine/Oil
  • 3 tablespoons Cocoa
  • 300 grams Sugar
  • 100 ml Water
  • 4 Eggs
  • 250 grams Flour
  • 3/4 Pack Baking powder
  • 1 packet Vanilla sugar
Preparation
  1. To start, put the pan on the stove with the margerine (or the oil in my case), the water, the sugar and the cocoa

  2. Bring to the boil while stirring, let it cook for 1 minute and set aside to cool partially

  3. When the mixture is no longer too hot, you can pour it into the bowl

  4. Now add the eggs and beat them in. Note:if the mixture is too hot, your eggs will coagulate! Resist the temptation and rather wait a little too long than too short, because congealed eggs in your cake... no, you don't want that (unfortunately you can also throw the mixture away)

  5. After this, the flour is mixed under the mixture

  6. Finally, mix baking powder and vanilla sugar into the batter

  7. You should see air bubbles form during mixing. This immediately indicates that your batter was successful and guarantees a delicious airy cake

  8. 8. Pour the batter into the mold and let the cake bake at a temperature of 175˚C in the middle of the oven for about 60 minutes
