Eggless Chocolate Chips Cake

Eggless Chocolate Chips Cake

Hi Friends,
I know friends that these days i am away from my baby blog. It turned 2 years old on 8th June but few most important thing kept me lot of busy and my mind was so occupied with different things that i forgot to celebrate this occasion. But now i am here with a cake which i made for two reasons, one was to celebrate Rakhi and second was birthday of my brother's son Rishi and now third reason become birthday of my own baby blog. So i am here with a chocolate chips cake to celebrate three occasions at one place. 

Most of the time i bake chocolate cake as i feel that i cant go wrong with chocolate cakes. But vanilla or any other cake makes me bit nervous as in my cakes i use wheat or multi grain flour. So this time i used APF/Maida to bake this cake as i cant take chances because of lack of time. It came out so well and with the combination of chocolate sauce it was so delicious and everyone relished it. I hope you will also try and relish it with your loved ones.

I made this cake in hurry and i was amazed with he results. It was spongy, moist and sooo chocolaty. It took me 40 minutes to bake it. I always like to use walnuts in baking it gives a great crunch and unique taste to cake.

It was vanished as soon as it was cut and served to kids, kids kept on asking for more and more. You can serve it as Simple Tea Cake or with chocolate sauce, caramel sauce or even with ice cream etc. You can decorated it with whipped cream, chocolate ganache, butter chocolate cream etc. Have this cake any ways it will not disappoint you.

Notes:-

1. You can use plain flour or mix of flours like 50-50 ratio of wheat and plain flour. I used whole wheat flour but nobody felt that. 
2. You can decrease chocolate and increase sugar if you are not a chocolate person.
3. You you want to skip chocolate but need same dark color then use brown sugar instead of white sugar.
4. You can use 50gm butter instead of oil. 
5. You can pulse the walnut in a mixer or crush them with some heavy object for more uniform mixing in the cake batter. 
6. You can any of your favorite nuts/dry fruit in it to make it more rich.
