Lazy Man's Chocolate Cake Recipe (1 Viewer)

To contribute, here's my own recipe for something I call A Lazy Man's Chocolate Cake Recipe:

Kari Lazy mans choc cake (7).JPG

Mix first these well:

0.4 litre (= 4 decilitres, 14 fluid ounces) white sugar
0.5 litre (= 5 decilitres, 17 fluid ounces) fine wheat flour
Half a teaspoon salt
One teaspoon baking soda

In another bowl, mix these well:
0.2 litre (= 2 decilitres, 7 fluid ounces) sour cream
2 big eggs
150 gram (= 5.5 ounces) melted, cooled butter

Now mix the content of both bowls together, very well.
Put the mix in a baking tin and bake on 175°C (350°F) for 45 minutes.

When the cake is in the oven, take 200 grams / 7 ounces of dark chocolate in small pieces.
Must not be too small, a bit over centimetre / half an inch square.

Once the cake is cooked take the cake from the oven.
Cover the baking tin with a big plate, turn it upside down so the cake falls to the plate.
Put the empty tin away, then cover the cake with the broken chocolate squares.
The heat of the cake melts the chocolate so it gets a nice frosting. :)

Enjoy!
