Ingredients
For the cake
- 1 cup oil
- 6 eggs
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 tub Greek yogurt
- 1/2 small jar Nutella
- 4 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 cup chocolate milk powder
- 3 cups self-rising flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
Instructions
- 1
In a large bowl, mix all the wet ingredients: oil, eggs, water, Greek yogurt and Nutella. Mix well until the mixture is uniform and the Nutella is fully dissolved, with no lumps.
- 2
Add the dry ingredients except the flour: sugar, cocoa and chocolate milk powder. Mix until everything is combined and there are no cocoa lumps.
- 3
Add the self-rising flour and mix until it is incorporated into the batter. Stop as soon as there are no more streaks of flour, because overmixing will make the cake dense and less airy.
- 4
Pour the batter into an A4-size square pan, greased or lined with parchment paper.
- 5
Bake on the lower third of the oven at 175°C for about 35 minutes. Check with a toothpick in the last minutes: it should come out dry or with a few moist crumbs.
- 6
Remove from the oven and let cool. You can top the cake with a chocolate ganache made of melted chocolate and cream.
Noga's tip
For an airy cake, mix the flour only until just combined. Test the cake with a toothpick before taking it out, since every oven bakes a little differently.
