Post Title:+Mango-Chocolate Marble Loaf Cake..;)Eggless & Butterless;P*Tried & Tested* This month's HBC(Home Bakers Challenge) challenge was real fun hosted by Sangee Vijay Of Sipcy Treats , the fruit of the season mango n chocolate mania spread its wings and brought a whole lot of us under mere temptation to bake these goodies! And when these goodies are Eggless and Butterless i think i Sinned but a little less...;D. Well i searched and searched for mango pulp...but did'nt manage to get it around where i lived..i was also damn lazy(yet desperate to gorge on the gorgeous stuff) to get dressed when all leave and push the stroller in 45deg hot summer of Dubai and try going even little farther than my building to get mango pulp...then...i managed to push some buttons on my phone to check with my local grocery...where he said in his hindi with a pakka south indian accent.."sory madam,Mango Pullp Nahim Hain...Parr Fresh Mango hain..aapko chahiye..?? Chalege k...

+Egg less Chocolate Mocha Mousse Cake:) Its 'May Day'..or more commonly known as 'International Workers Day'...wow for the fruits of Labour...are so sweet...today finally after 2 years of typing this post i finally get to post it..;) still wondering how i missed uploading it..!! Now Being My Hubby's Birthday Cake couldn't be so simple as a Busy Day Chocolate Cake ...now can it...?? (psst: Now had it been someone else's birthday then i'd have rather just done up with a simple phone-call), But it's my hubby had i not done something special... (meri tho beezathi ho jani thi....yaar..!!). I had to make it special somehow...though i knew hubby wouldn't care so much.. especially being his birthday which he hates to celebrate cos he feels people make it a point to remind him he's getting older(as if he didn't know that and never sulked about it through the whole year..)...;(( Awww...you darling..;P.  But how would m...

+Busy-Day Chocolate Sponge Cake(Dairy Free & Low-Cal n Eggless)..;P Hi all i'm back and all set...Holidays really didn't go as planned....Since Hubby's granny passed away 2 days after we landed and the whole idea of a great holiday turned out on a very sad note, She was one sweetheart and great lady...i really really miss her, sooooo...unlike a great mom-in-law(which she never ever let me feel like she was a grand mom in law)...she was so much like my own nani-ma...sooo.... full of love and care and most importantly loved to feed all of us...just like all mom's n granny's. A grand era passed leaving only beautiful memories to be cherished behind. Anyways..,now that i'm back i was looking for an opportunity for the right time to make my post...and finally so i found one.... It's hubby's birthday today and me and my little daughter decided to bake a home made chocolate-coffee cake pretty late last night(psst: hubby was off for a late night m...

For the Eggless Chocolate Mousse: What goes inside: 125Gms: Cooking Chocolate Bar(I used Vochelle). 100Gms: Whipping Or Double Cream. 1/2 Cup(125Gms): Butter. 1Tsp: Vanilla Essence. 1/4 Cup: Icing Sugar. 1/2Tsp: Instant Coffee Powder(Optional). How to put it in together: Chop the Cooking chocolate into small uniform pieces,add butter along with it. Melt Chocolate and butter together on high in the Microwave for 1.5-2 minutes, remove from microwave once done and set aside to cool. Tip in the instant coffee powder into the chocolate - butter mix and stir in well. In another large bowl, take the whipping/double cream along with the icing sugar and whip on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until it just forms a stiff peak(a perfect stiff peak is reached when the peak can stay up until at least a minute or two). Now the chocolate-butter-coffee mixture would have cooled up by now,if not place the bowl in another bowl of cold water, but ensure the mixture is not left to cool ...

Basic Eggless WWF Sponge Loaf Cake..;) A Confession : Though I've been baking for quite sometime now,i must confess a basic sponge cake was more a matter of luck in my "cake"...Oops...sorry "case"..!!  I would go on and on like mom always very rightly said "Try try never say die... " i kept trying until i continued to succeed(psst: just to ensure i'm doing it perfectly right)..!!  Finally I've succeeded & so proud to shout it out loud to the world...i managed to bake the most "Mmmm..moist Eggless WWF Sponge Cake"...). It's been such a hit at my place that I've already baked it thrice in 3days in a row (I swear i'm just not exaggerating one bite..sorry bit..;) and also tried my new experiment "Basic Eggless WWF-Oatmeal & Chocolate Loaf Cake"...Well that recipe will follow soon though..!! Baking a cake always takes me through the nostalgia of school days where we learnt the famous nursery rhyme " ...
