Its April and this month our Blogging Marathoners are running a mega marathon and will be posting for 26 days with Sundays off.
Already we came across so many theme and this mega marathon is going to be a baking theme.So our marathoners will be showcasing baking dishes for 26 days.Since no sub themes were given for the baking theme,its is individual preference to create their own themes,I chose to post each week a theme.
Week 1 - Simple Eggless Cakes without frosting/icing
Week 2 - Breads and Buns with Yeast
Week 3- Eggless Cookies
Week 4- Savory and miscellaneous Baking
Week 5- Cupcakes and Muffins
As per the theme,today I chose to share you all a simple,evergreen Vanilla cake.After so many trials I made this butterless ,eggless version and also used 1/4 tsp of eno fruit salt to get the perfect texture.This cake is so simple and easy to make and can be used as a base for different icing or a snack cake.Here I used the condensed milk and didn't add sugar and the sweetness was just perfect.But if you want the cake to be in the sweeter side,add around 2-3 tbs of granulated sugar.With no further lets move on to the recipe..............................................
