Eggless Chocolate Pastry / Cake

Pooja's Cookery Posted on by

One of the super moist Eggless Chocolate Pastry / Cake is quite easy to prepare and most easy to prepare. Kids would definitely love this .

Because mother’s day and my hubby’s birthday were coming up, thought of preparing muffins first. But since I recently had prepared pineapple muffins, dropped the idea and tried  yet another version of super moist egg less chocolate pastry with vanilla eggless sponge cake and rich creamy chocolate buttercream frosting  , the best desserts ever. Whenever I prepare cake, I make sure that I bake my base cake in advance just to cool it down completely and then frost it with my favorite choice. 

I have tried out different variations of eggless cakes before , but today  got perfect no fail egg less cake recipe and very happy to share it with you. One of my friend’s had asked me to put up egg less baking recipe on my website, and this is specially for you my friend . Though I have used butter in my sponge cake, you can substitute it with oil. 

This is a super easy cake recipe, and if you want your sponge cake to be chocolaty too,  add two tablespoons cocoa powder while mixing and increase the amount of milk by 2 tablespoons. You will wonder how I got the netted design on top of my chocolate icing. That’s because I  pressed  wire rack on top of it slightly, to give that design.

Add 1/2 of the sifted cocoa, sugar mixture in it. Add milk as required and beat at a low speed till the frosting gets creamy. Add the remaining half and continue beating. You need to scrap the sides of the bowl in between while beating. You might want to adjust milk and sugar depending upon the consistency of frosting.  If the frosting looks too thick, add little more milk and vice versa.
Add vanilla essence and mix.

Make sure your frosting recipe is perfect to get that sweet and buttery taste.

Let’s frost our Cake:

Flip the cooled cake on a plate and slice it in between in order to divide into two as shown below.

Arrange some silver foil pieces on a plate where you want to decorate the cake , in order to avoid the mess. Place one slice of the cake on it and add some icing or frosting on top. Spread it with the spatula and place the other slice of the cake on top. Add the icing on top and sides and spread it well. Smoothen it well with spatula.
Decorate with anything of your choice. I used cherry as you can see in my final pictures.
