Chocolate Blaze Sponge Cake

We had a blazing good time celebrating Leo’s birthday this year. I used Daleen’s chocolate cake recipe to make a “Blaze and the Monster Machines Mud cake.” It is really a yummy, fluffy cake. It tasted really good with the chocolate cream cheese icing I made. Marc got the little Blaze characters online. Leo really liked his cake! Will post some more pics of the party and our Blaze piñata in next post.

Daleen’s Chocolate Sponge Cake recipe:

Chocolate sponge cake:

Turn your Oven to 180’C

You will need:

8 eggs seperated

1/2cup cacao

1cup hot water

2 cup cake flour

2 cup sugar

4 tsp + 1 tsp baking powder

3/4 cup cooking oil

Pinch of salt

5ml vanilla essence

Method:

Mix hot water and cacao and let cool.

Mix flour, sugar, baking powder(4tsp) and salt.

Add egg yolks, oil and cooled cacao water.

Mix well for about 10 min.

Beat egg whites until stiff peaks can form. Add 1 teasspoon baking powder and fold into chocolate mix.

Bake for 40min

(Until you can smell the cake and it’s no longer wobbly. Or until a knife/toothpick comes out clean.)

Really yummy! Thanks Daleen.😊
