Recipe posted and photo: Esmerelda Brown Pretorius

• 1 cup cake flour
• 1 cup sugar
• 3 teaspoon baking powder
• pinch of salt
• ¼ cup cacao
• ½ cup hot water
• ½ cup oil
• 4 egg seperated
• 1 can Ideal milk
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 slabs whole nut chocolate
• Sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Separately mix the cacao, hot water, oil and yolks.
• Mix the wet ingredients into flour mix. Beat egg whites and fold into mixture.
• Grease a baking dish or pan, add the mixture and bake at 180 ºC for 30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. (Mine was exactly 30 minutes.)
• Sauce:
• Boil together the ideal milk (keep ¼ tin aside) and sugar, pour over hot cake as soon as removed from the oven.
• Melt the chocolate and the left over ¼ tin of ideal milk together. Do not let it boil, just melt, pour over cooled cake. Enjoy!
• Note:
• You can serve it with cream and strawberries if you wish!
• I added coffee powder to the hot water from the cake, to give it an even richer taste! So good!
