One Bowl Eggless Chocolate Cake And Water and some French History

Posted on 08:52 by Unknown
Marie Antoinette...
And all the gory details of the French revolution!
School!
And Cake!

Chocolate Cake ...
Moist and wet and dreamily yummy!
And egg less!
If you have been keeping track of my bio...you will know that I am now gainfully-as in an economically viable-y employed in a high school and that I teach history to senior school boys and girls.
Boys and girls who haven't the faintest interest in their own history...let alone the french revolution.
But then...some one has to do this dirty job...
Make the French Revolution palatable!

With chocolate cake...
Well what ever history says about Marie Antoinette and her air head comments ...about letting them eat cake...it is so not true.
But that caught their attention...30 ninth graders...
And me...
I went all out telling the stories of what all I have ever read and seen on celluloid...
And what should have taken only 15 classes took more than 22!
But the cake was not for them...

They got pearls of my wisdom-sic! 
This was in honour of general happiness...
Missing friends and trying to fit into the new staff room..the staff room that has many pure no egg eaters.
So a small offering...and a display of my prowess...that water makes for a fantastic cake too...
yes!

One Bowl Egg less Chocolate Cake And Water and some French History...

3 cups plain flour
2 cups sugar
2 cups water
1/2 cup cocoa powder

2 tsp vanilla essence
1 tbsp vinegar

Once the sugar dissolves ,Add in the oil, vanilla and the vinegar.
Pour the wet into the dry and whisk batter...
And pour into the tin...
pop into the oven for 35 minutes,check only when the cake comes away from the sides...If you want to poke with a metal skewer...clean out and its done.
This is for the frosting...
I could not possibly take a naked cake to school,now could I?
This was left over chocolate...Amul Zoo chocolate...
Pretty shapes...
See the cake...clean and so shiny!Run a knife around it and invert after half an hour...
Melted chocolate in the microwave...
One recipe of my famously easy Chocolate fudge sauce...find the recipe here...
Blend in while still warm...
to get this....
Into which I added the butter...
And cooled the sauce...
Next morning...cake sliced in half...
Sauce slathered on...

Covered...and drool factor on...
Yum! Yum!
Pretty Sprinkles to make you happy...
Tupperware'd for school...
And some leftovers stashed for pics and midnight chocolate cravings..

Cravings which make you lick spoons with a dreamy look in your eyes and a satisfied smirk on your face...
Things that make you go mmmm......
Don't mind Marie Antoinette and her shenanigans...
