Simple Chocolate Cake with Sour Milk and Bananas
Baking and Desserts • Russian
Description
Instead of cream, you can use sour cream (sugar + sour cream). The cake can be left plain, berries or jam can be added, and strawberries can be used instead of bananas for a completely different cake.
Ingredients
- Farm fresh eggs 4 pieces
- Sugar 1 cup
- Wheat Flour 2 cups
- Fermented Milk 1 cup
- Salt a pinch
- Cocoa Powder 5 oz
- Bananas 3 pieces
- 33% Cream 10 fl oz
- Fresh Berries 0 oz
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Beat the eggs with 1 cup of sugar until the volume increases by about 2 times.
Step 2
Add flour, sour milk (or kefir), a packet of baking powder, and a pinch of salt to the eggs. Add cocoa powder (about 5 tablespoons) or melted chocolate.
Step 3
Bake in the oven until fully cooked (check with a toothpick) at 180–200°C for about 40 minutes, or as I did, in a slow cooker on the 'bake' setting (1 hour).
Step 4
Cut the finished cake into 2 parts, soak them with sugar syrup (2 tablespoons of sugar + 2 tablespoons of boiling water). Let it cool.
Step 5
Slice the bananas thinly and place them on the cake. Whip the cream. Spread some of the cream over the bananas.
Step 6
Place the other cake layer on top, spread the remaining cream on it. Dust with cocoa powder and decorate with any berries.
