Chocolate Flat Cake

Hi guys, first of all, i really want to apologise for disappearing for such a long time (~3 months). Had been busy researching and working on my brother's wedding cake. Sometime, i only turn on my laptop during weekend if i am not working on weekend.

Today the recipe i am going to share is actually a fail recipe when i first created it. I wanted to make a chocolate cake but it came out the cake was quite dry. I changed the recipe into a cookies/biscuit recipe, and i baked the batter like baking cookies. The texture of it was actually very nice - crunchy outside and chewy inside. Therefore, i named it "flat cake" - cake texture in the middle but it is flat.


Chocolate Flat Cake

Ingredient:
1 cup plain flour + ½ cup wholemeal flour, sifted
½ tbs baking powder
½ cup brown sugar
60g butter, melted
1 egg
¼ cup milk
1tbs vanilla essence
½ cup of each dark and milk chocolate chip/button

For decoration
Melted white chocolate
Speckles

Method:
1. Preheat oven to 180oC and line 2 baking tray with greased baking paper
2. Combined flours and baking powder in a bowl. In a separately bowl, whisk sugar, melted butter, egg, milk and vanilla essence until combined
3. Melt the dark and milk chocolate by double boiling method
4. Make a well in dry ingredient and mix in the wet ingredient until well-combined (don’t over mix it). Add in melted chocolate and stir until combined
5. Scoop a spoonful of batter on baking paper (to make around 16). Flatten the batter a bit by using a back of spoon.
6. Bake for 15 mins until cook. Decorate while the cake is still hot so the chocolate or speckle can stick on the cake. Cool the cake for 10 mins before serving
7. The cake is best serve on the same day it has prepared while the outside is crunchy and inside is chewy


It is a very easy recipe and trust me, you wont stop eating after having the first one. Hahaha.....it is so good to go with a hot coffee. Hope you will enjoy it.


I will try to update at least one recipe per month. Until then, hope all of you happy and healthy. See ya.
