Notes

  • Using blender jar is easy way to make the cake batter. Since it emulsify the oil with the eggs, sugar and makes the cake tender.
  • Don’t over bake the cake. Bake until the cake is just baked. Over baking may make it hard.
  • Melted butter can be used instead of oil.
  • Chocolate chips and chopped nuts can be added in the cake for texture.
  • You can make chocolate glaze to pour over the cake once baked.
