Easy & Delicious Chocololate Cake

Today is my son´s birthday and since his party is only a week from now, I´ve made a new chocolate cake recipe I actually found online. He unfortunately came down with a flew yesterday and felt like doing something to pamper him. Chocolate is his favorite sweet! 

The interesting thing about this recipe is that it doesn´t need flour. The cake is incredibly moist and light and it couldn´t be easier to make! It does look like it, right?

Here´s how to do it.

Ingredients

- 6 eggs
- 6 table spoons of powdered chocolate, the one you drink with milk is good enough (I used Cadbury) 
- 8 table spoons of sugar
- 1 table spoon of baking powder
- 2 table spoons of soft butter 

For the topping:
- 250 ml of milk
- half cup of sugar
- half cup of powdered chocolate
- 2 table spoons of Maizena

Preparation

Mix the butter with the sugar and add the eggs one by one, always mixing, followed by the chocolate and the baking powder. Mix everything again very well. Pour into a tray (no need to cover it in butter and flour if it´s a non-stick tray) and pop into the oven for 30 min at 180º.

Once the cake has baked, prepare the topping. In a pan, heat the milk (leaving just a bit aside to mix with the maizena) with the chocolate and sugar and when it starts to boil pour a bit on top of the cake. With the pan back on the stove, dissolve the maizena on the milk previously set aside and pour into the pan. Keep stiring until it thickens, but not too much. Should take about 2 minutes max.

Cover the cake and it´s ready to eat!
