Here’s why thousands of people prefer making eggless chocolate cake at home:
✔ One 8-inch round cake (serves 8–10)
⏱ Prep Time: 15 minutes
⏱ Baking Time: 30–35 minutes
⏱ Frosting + Assembly: 15 minutes
1 large mixing bowl
1 whisk or electric beater
8-inch round cake tin
Parchment paper
Measuring cups & spoons
Sifter
Spatula
Wire rack for cooling
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup sugar (granulated or powdered)
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
1 cup milk (room temperature; use dairy or plant-based)
1 tbsp vinegar (white or apple cider)
⅓ cup oil (any neutral oil)
1 tsp vanilla essence
½ cup hot water (to activate cocoa flavor)
In a bowl, mix 1 cup milk + 1 tbsp vinegar.
Allow the mixture to sit for about 5 minutes, giving it enough time to naturally curdle. This is your egg replacement and gives the cake softness.
Grease your 8-inch pan with oil/butter and line with parchment.
This ensures the cake releases easily. ✔️
Pass the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt through a sifter to ensure a smooth, lump-free mixture.
Sifting adds air → softer cake.
Add oil + vanilla into the buttermilk. Mix gently until smooth.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients.
Gently whisk until just combined. Do NOT overmix.
Add ½ cup hot water slowly while whisking.
This step deepens chocolate flavor and improves texture.
Pour batter into pan and bake at:
⏲ 180°C (350°F) for 30–35 minutes.
Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center—if it comes out clean, your cake is perfectly baked.
Place cake on a wire rack.
Cooling prevents frosting from melting.
(Chocolate Ganache Frosting — smooth, glossy & rich)
1 cup chopped dark chocolate
½ cup fresh cream
1 tbsp butter
Heat the cream until warm (not boiling).
Pour it over chopped chocolate.
Let sit for 2 minutes, then mix until smooth.
Add butter for shine.
Cool 15 minutes before using.
🎉 Your super glossy chocolate ganache is ready!
Place the cake on a stand.
Trim the top (only if uneven).
Pour ganache over the cake.
Spread evenly using a spatula.
Decorate with sprinkles, chocolate shavings, nuts, or fruits.
✨ TIP: Chilling for 30 minutes helps frosting set beautifully.
✔ Use fresh baking soda & powder for perfect rise.
✔ Do not overmix the batter — it makes the cake dense.
✔ Always use hot water to intensify chocolate flavor.
✔ Make sure ingredients are at room temperature.
✔ Avoid opening the oven repeatedly.
✔ Let the cake cool completely before frosting.
✨ 1. Chocolate Orange Cake

✨ 2. Mocha Cake
Add 1 tsp instant coffee to hot water.
✨ 3. Oreo Chocolate Cake
Fold in ½ cup crushed Oreos before baking.
✨ 4. Nutella Filling
Spread Nutella between layers for a gooey surprise.

Add almonds, cashews, or hazelnuts for crunch.
🧁 Room Temperature:
Stays fresh 1–2 days.
❄️ Refrigerator:
Up to 5 days in an airtight container.
🧊 Freezer:
Cake (without frosting) can be frozen up to 2 months.
Wrap tightly in cling film + foil.
✔ Serve warm with vanilla ice cream 🍦
✔ Add fresh strawberries 🍓

Yes! Bake in a cooker or Kadai for 40 minutes on low flame.
Overmixing or expired baking soda is the main cause.

Better not — milk gives softness. Use plant-based milk instead.
