How to Make Skillet Chocolate Cake
This skillet chocolate cake is perfect for a quick and hassle-free treat. See below the list of all ingredients and required quantities. And then, a very complete preparation method with details of the recipe.
Recipe Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons chocolate drink powder
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 50 ml oil (1.7 fl oz)
- 50 ml milk (1.7 fl oz)
- 1 tablespoon baking powder (0.42 oz / 12g)
Instructions:
Mixing the Liquid Ingredients:
First, in a bowl, crack the eggs and add the sugar. Using a hand whisk, mix well until you achieve a smooth consistency.
Then, pour in the oil and milk, stirring continuously to fully combine all the liquids.
Incorporating the Dry Ingredients:
Next, gradually add the chocolate powder while stirring constantly.
After that, slowly incorporate the flour, mixing continuously until the batter becomes smooth and free of lumps.
Adding the Baking Powder:
Finally, add the baking powder and gently mix until it is fully dissolved into the batter.
Cooking in the Skillet:
Grease a non-stick skillet with a little butter, margarine, or oil.
Then, pour the batter into the skillet and cover with a lid.
After that, place it on the stove and cook over very low heat. If needed, use an additional rack to prevent the bottom from burning, or place a baking tray underneath as a heat insulator.
To finish, let it cook slowly until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, indicating the cake is fully baked.
Tips:
- Heat Control: Keeping the heat low is crucial to avoid burning the cake. Using a rack or tray underneath can help distribute the heat more evenly.
- Variations: Feel free to add nuts, chocolate chunks, or dried fruits to the batter for an extra touch of flavor.
- Serving: This cake is delicious both warm and cold. Serve with your preferred topping, such as chocolate syrup, heavy cream, or simply dusted with powdered sugar.
