Cake and mocha for tea. |
This is my 200th post for this blog. And to celebrate this joyous occasion, Mama baked a moist chocolate cake. We had the most scrumptious tea today. Oh, it's also Mama and Dad's wedding anniversary. Fancy that, eh? They've been together for ages.
In case any of you hankering to know what we put in the cake, here's the recipe.
Moist Chocolate Cake a la Angelina
2 cups plain flour
2 cups sugar
2 tsp bicarb soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup corn oil
1 cup buttermilk
3/4 cup cocoa powder (dark)
1 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
1 cup boiling water
2 eggs
Preheat oven at 150-degree Celcius.
Grease and line a 20-inch round or square cake tin.
Mix cocoa powder and bicarb soda with flour. Sieve.
Beat sugar with corn oil and buttermilk until it dissolves.
Put in vanilla essence and eggs. Beat.
Mix in flour, cocoa and soda mixture.
Mix in boiling water.
Pour into prepared cake tin and bake in oven for about 1 (one) hour or until cake tester comes out clean.
Let cool before cutting and serving.
Serve with a mug of mocha.
Burp. Excuse me. purrr....meow!

Happy Anniversary to yr mum & dad, cool to be together and love each other. For you, congrats of the 200th n3..keep writing
Congratulations on the 200th post and the anniversary. The inhabitants of the Planet of the Monyets have decided to send you a truck load of ripe pisang emas to celebrate the occasion.
If the consignment does not arrive by tommorow,then you would know that we ate the stuff ourselves.
Hey, you can't claim this to be your 200th post! Some of the postings were done by Brad and Tom, right?
CO78,
Mama and Dad get a good licking and headbutt from all of us. Even Pingu and Ginger joined the fun. purrr....meow!
Aunty MM,
We're not as prolific as we would like to be. You know...cats prefer napping to writing. We'll try our best. purrr....meow!
Your Royal Monyetness,
We'll look out for the consignment, if any. It's the thought that counts. purrr....meow!
Aunty Pi,
Yeah...but only with my permission! purrr....meow!

Aunty Caren,
No worries. Mama and her friends ate most of the cake. I'm not much into cakes....have to watch my waistline. Mama and Dad say thank you for the wishes. purrr....meow!
dah 200 entri?? banyaknya...tahniah :)
Aunty Meoww,
Not that many, actually. purrr....meow!
Happy anniversary to your Mama and Dad, may they have a blessed and happy future together :)
I must say well done. But are you sure you are not selling yourself short? A glance through your archive gives me a total of more than 280 and I wonder why 2008 is a missing year.`
Mother of Ilham,
Mama and Dad said "Thank you" for your well wishes. purrr...meow!
Dear Pakcik,
200 is what the blogger dashboard tells me. I'm not going to argue with that. Oh, we took sabbatical in 2008. purrr....meow!
Happy 200th Blogpost, Happy Anniversary, Happy Burping and most of all thanks for all the happiness you have given to me and other readers.
Love that sexy pose LOL!!
Take care and have a great weekend!
Salam
Aunty Paula,
What sexy pose? Me? Auw....you're making me blush.... purrr....meow!

Moist choc cake is my favourite. Bought some at a bakery tapi tak sedap :( I'm gonna try your recipe.Mesti sedap!! Thanks for sharing.

Uncle Lee,
What funny pose? Too much Hollywood movies? But I am Angelina Jolie! purrr....meow!
Aunty Ahan,
Rajin? hehehe...thank you! Thank you! purrr....meow!
TK Sensei,
Is it easy to get buttermilk in KT? In KL, you can get it at Cold Storage, at the cheese section. It's the buttermilk that makes it moist, OK? Some bakeries skimp on the ingredients. That's why Mama always bake her own. purrr....meow!
hey Cats... sure you guys didn't rush for the 200th to coincide with Mum and Dads anniv?
Anyways congratulations all round - and not too much gluten after this OK?
Aunty Zen,
Yeah....yummy when eaten, then tummy ache because of gluten. What to do? purrr....meow!
