Baking a chocolate cake is almost everyone’s desire list but baking cake is not a cup of tea. It takes lots of effort ingredients and equipment. I am going to share an idea which helps you out to make a cake without an oven. There are several methods available; the one which is my favorite is baking cake in pressure cooker until it gets downy and mild. When I came to Delhi I use to place online cake delivery in Delhi whenever I like to eat cake but gradually I started making cakes by self at home. At the initial stage it was very difficult for me to make a cake after that with the time I learnt how to make a perfect cake. As I love chocolate flavor most among all, I usually prefer to make chocolate flavored cake usually. Now we will see the procedure of making chocolate cake in cooker. If you want you can also make this in oven. I made this perfectly in my cooker so, I hope you would try this at home.
The cooking time will depend upon the size of pan and amount of batter you are using. I made a small cake that can be separated in 10 large pieces. It took me around 55 minutes to bake it perfectly. I used a 5 liter aluminum pressure cooker.
