Eggless Chocolate Cake
Its my hubby's bday and i was on the spree of baking. I have never ever baked a cake in my life!. Ya i know thats really sad :(. But then i stated off making this simple cake and initially i had trouble with knowing the temperature of the oven, i got the cake all torned and burned! But then i m not a person who will accept defeat so fast. So i baked again and Voila!! I got a beautiful cake which my hubby did appreciate a lot. As i thought baking is actually not so hard and after all, its fun :)
