50 gms – cream ( 1/4 cup )

Method:

Step 1) Get ready with all the ingredients ..

Step 2) Line the cake pan with baking paper and brush with melted butter ..

Step 3) Into a bowl, add the sugar, butter and whisk until creamy .. ( for 1 minute )..

Step 4) Add the oil, yogurt and whisk for 30 seconds ..

Step 5) Into a strainer or sifter, add the wheat flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, salt and mix ..

Step 6) Sift in 3 batches and whisk in circular motion.. ( it will be thick towards the end )..

Step 7) Pour little milk at a time and make a smooth free-flowing batter

Step 8) Using a flat spatula, fold the batter ( 5 – 6 times )..

Step 9) Pour into the greased cake pan ..

Step 10) To cook the cake:

Take a pressure cooker or a heavy pan..
add 1 cup salt and spread evenly..
place a pressure cooker stand or a tall stand (like this)
remove the rubber gasket.. and place the lid on top
Heat on high for 5 minutes ..
carefully, place the cake on the stand ..
Place lid on top ( no rubber gasket )..
Heat on high for 5 minutes ..
After 5 minutes, reduce to medium and cook for 35 minutes ( or until cooked )..
After 35 minutes, check with a toothpick by inserting in the centre of the cake.. should be dry ( no sticky batter ) .. if there is cake crumbs sticking to the toothpick, press and feel if it’s sticky or dry cake.. if dry, the cake is ready..
if the toothpick is sticky, cook for another 10 minutes..
It took 40 minutes for me .. once ready, takeout and place on a cake cooling rack for 2 minutes
Run a knife around the edges and carefully flip the cake pan on to another plate.. After 2 minutes, slowly remove the cakepan
If the cake is sticking to the pan, do this.. ( wet a kitchen tissue with cold water, squeeze out excess water and wipe on top & sides of cake pan .. let it sit for 2 minutes.. now remove the cake tin.. hopefully, the cake comes off the pan 😀
Gently, remove the baking paper/wax paper ( if it’s sticking to the cake ).. Flip the cake.. and let it cool completely before icing ( can take from 3 – 5 hours ).. to speedup, you can refrigerate the cake for 1 – 2 hours..

Step 11) As the cake is cooling, make the chocolate icing

Into a pan, pour 100ml cream, 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp vanilla
Bring it to a boil.. once it boils, turn off and pour into a bowl
Add 250gms dark chocolate pieces ( cooking/baking chocolate)
Mix until smooth.. Let it cool down.. shoul be thick for icing ( takes 1 – 2 hours ).. you can speedup by placing in a bowl of cold water or refrigerate for 30 minutes..

Step 12) If you like to decorate ( to write ‘happy birthday’ or other simple decoration ), you can make this easy ‘ White chocolate icing ‘

Into a pan, pour 1/4 cup cream (50ml) and bring it to a boil
Once it boils, remvoe from heat
Add 100gms white chocolate pieces ( cooking/baking white chocolate )
Mix until smooth.. let it cool down.. should be thick for decoration ( takes 1 – 2 hours ).. to speedup, place in a bowl of cold water or refrigerate for 30 minutes
Once the icing is thick, place in a ziploc bag or plastic bag and tie the top..
Cut the tip of the bag to make a tiny hole..

Step 13) Once the cake is completely cool,.. start icing..

first, trim the top of cake to level it ( top should be flat without uneven surface ).. use a serrated or bread knife to trim the cake (as this will prevent the cake from breaking .. and cuts easily ).. ( you can check the above video for this part )
Place some chocolate icing on top ( icing should be thick ) and smoothen the top..
Place some icing towards the edges and coat the sides of the cake
For tips about ‘ how to easily ice the cake ‘ check the above video ‘ )
Once you finish icing, decorate with white chocolate icing as you wish ! .. i just wrote ‘ Happy Birthday ‘ 😀

You can make this cake 2 – 3 days ahead of birthday.. place a big plastic bowl or pan over the cake ( careful not to touch the top or sides of the cake ) and refrigerate until the BIG Day !.. ( you can see the above video as how I refrigerated ) ..
Remember to takeout the cake 1 – 2 hours before cutting ( let it sit in room temperature until cutting for a MOIST delicious melt-in-mouth CAKE 😀 ..and ennn..joooyyy.. 😀
