    Easy Chocolate Cake

    May 23, 2017 by ohsobusymum Leave a Comment

    This chocolate cake is super easy to make, which makes it perfect for birthdays or celebrations! I like to make a batch in a square slice tin to slice up and freeze for school lunches.

    INGREDIENTS

    • 2 ½ cups plain flour
    • 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
    • 1 ¾ cups caster sugar
    • 1 cup butter, melted
    • 1 ¾ cups milk
    • 4 eggs
    • ½ cup cocoa
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    Icing
    • ¼ cup butter, softened
    • ¼ cup milk
    • ¼ cup cocoa powder
    • 3 cups icing sugar

    DIRECTIONS

    1. Preheat oven to 18o°C and spray a cake tin with non-stick spray.
    2. Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.
    3. Pour the prepared batter into cake tin and bake for around 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
    4. Once the cake is cool, mix all icing ingredients together and spread over cake.
