It 8.33 and I am bored and the dust is collecting on the shelves I simply must dust but instead I am gripped by the need the absolute need to bake a cake. I can bake cakes if there are square or in a loaf tin and one day ( been saying this for years I will bake my nemesis ) the Victoria Sponge.
Ingredients
Preheat the oven to
2 cups of plain flour = 240 grams I believe
1 bottle of sweet tea or iced tea ( mine was spiced )
1 cup of drinking chocolate = 120 grams
2 teaspoons of baking powder.
1 cup of coconut sugar = 120grams or adjust caster sugar to needs
Method
It would be a good idea to sieve the flour in.
After which just plonk everything together.
Having greased a 21lb loaf tin.
Spoon the mixture in .
Bake on 180c for 40 minutes . Do the knife test to check it's cooked all the way through.

The icing comes pre made from the co op and is salted caramel.
oooh I have a bottle of sweet spiced tea (probably the same one as you !) and loads of drinking chocolate to use up so this is perfect :) Thanks for linking up xx
ReplyDeleteBaking (and eating) a cake sounds like much more fun than dusting!
ReplyDeletePS love your new-look blog
Oh wow this cake sounds amazing, I am totally up for baking this and eating it all! x
ReplyDeleteIntrigued by this. I make a tea loaf where I soak the fruit overnight in cold tea - very moist.
ReplyDeleteNow this has intrigued me, not that I bake, but I always assumed eggs would be a must have ingredient.
ReplyDeleteI have never ever made a cake without using eggs, so I am fascinated at how well it turned out x
ReplyDeleteoh that sounds delicious! and that icing heavenly! :-)
ReplyDeleteOoh this sounds interesting, love the idea of salted caramel icing too (one of my favourite flavours)
ReplyDeleteCan you be gripped by the need to bake a cake for me at some stage? I love cake!!!
ReplyDeleteI like the sound of this. Strangely despite making so many different cakes I find making loaf cakes so much easier as well.
