Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Frosting

One more chocolate cake recipe is here, but this time with Chocolate Frosting.I kept this cake quite simple, i just pour the chocolate frosting on the cake and decorated it with almond flakes. Any time I wanted to eat a cake my mom would make this quick frosting. This frosting is very liquid in nature and best when served hot. Love this quick frosting.


Ingredients:
For Cake-
1 1/2 cup All Purpose Flour
1/2 cup sugar
3 tbsp honey
3/4 cup Milk
1/2 tsp Salt
1 stick melted butter
tsp Baking Soda
tsp Baking powder
tbsp Cocoa powder
1 tsp Vanilla essence
1 tbsp Lemon Juice

For Frosting-
150 grams dark chocolate
1/8 cup honey
3 tbsp butter

  4. Lastly add lemon juice to it and give it a quick mix.
  5. Bake it for 25-30 minutes at 180C or till when toothpick inserted it comes out clean.
  6. For frosting boil milk till you see bubbles appear at the sides.
