Easy Chocolate Cake

I like baking, but I do not want a complicated recipe for baking a cake. I enjoy baking with some familiar recipes with very few ingredients but still preserves the good taste. A piece of cake of any kind should always have a simple way to be created. Let the professional bakers do their wonderful jobs. Most of my recipes for baking cakes are easy and simply put together. Moreover, more than 100 years ago, most of the recipes for cake required the proper usage of hands and baking the cake in a simple oven, and the cakes came out great. Now, with the best equipment and a better choice of ingredients, we should be able to create a nice cake with less effort. Here is a newer recipe.

Ingredients:
Dry ingredients:
1 cup All purpose flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
2 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 cup sugar
What ingredients:
1 egg
1 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla
Topping ingredients:
1/4 cup powdered sugar

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°.
Grease and flour a 9 inch cake pan.

Sift the flour and cocoa powder well and combine with the rest of the dry ingredients and place in a bowl.

Combine all the wet ingredients in the container of a Vitamix® lender. Blend for 15 seconds.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the egg mixture into the dry ingredients. Whisk by hand for about 50 strokes, I learned this from the book, 100 Year Cake Recipes.



Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 30 minutes or until the skewer or toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean,

Cool in pan for 15 minutes and sprinkle powdered sugar on top before serving.
