Eggless Black Forest Cake

My parents are pure vegetarians. That’s why whenever we order cake for someone’s birthday in the family; we make sure that it’s eggless. This time I decided to take the matter into my own hands and bake a cake for my mother’s birthday. Home-made cakes are so much tastier than the ones available in markets, and they have a personal touch. The unanimous choice was Eggless Black Forest Cake. The key to nailing this recipe is to obtain a spongy and fluffy texture. For the cake dough, I have used simple ingredients like all-purpose flour (maida), baking soda, white butter and sugar (cheeni). I have also added condensed milk as it adds richness to the cake. The cake should be properly baked in a pre-heated oven. A toothpick can be inserted into the core of the cake to check if it’s completely cooked. Sweet syrup is used to drizzle over the cake, which contains sugar syrup, and icing sugar. Red rum is also used here, but it is not mandatory. Decorating and assembling the cake is a very exciting part. I have used both fruits and cream elements for decorating purposes. Chocolate shavings also enhance the beauty of the cake. My Eggless Black Forest Cake was an instant hit, and my mother really loved it. So give this recipe a try, and add sweetness to your life.
