I found this recipe for a chocloate chip cake in a magazine. The ingredients are
200 grams flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2teaspoon baking soda
140 grams sugar
110 ml oil or melted butter
1 cup condensed milk
100 grams chocolate chips
sifted the dry ingredients together
mixed sugar, melted butter and condensed milk. at this stage i added an egg, though not mentioned.
mixed in t he dry stuff and then folded in the chocolate chips
preheated oven at 180 degrees celcius. then i put the mixture into a 9 inch square tin.
the book said it would take 30 mins, but even after 20 mins the toothpick came out all sticky whereas the top was browned.
to prevent further browning i covered the tin with a foil till it was completly baked (total time 45 mins as compared to what was mentiond, i.e. 30 mins)
when the cake was in the oven it looked nice and well risen in the but after i removed it sank in the centre whereas the sides were perfect and tall..
finally the texture was gooey instead of cakey.
i liked the taste though
I don't know what I did wrong. Can somebody please help me?
