Eggless Chocolate Cake

I ran out of eggs and living on a boat means that shops are not ariuond the corner and available at any time. We were expecting guests and I wanted to make a cake so here's how I did it.


Ingredients:

280g self raising flour
3 level tablespoons of Cocoa
175g Castor sugar
Pinch of salt
1 tsp Bicabonate of soda
350ml Milk
150ml Vegetable oil
3 Tbsp Golden Syrup
1/2 tsp Vanilla essence

Method:

Place all the dry ingredients into a bowl, disolve the bicarb in a Tbsp of milk and add. Then add all the other ingredients. Hand beat, I use a fork, until smooth.

Grease a pan or two if you want a snadwich cake and bake at 180 for 30 minutes or until a knife comes out clean.
Ice with chocolate butter icing.

Simple, moist, delicious cake that was even better on day 2! I love that a cake you can bake the day before and know it will still taste fresh after 24 hours.
