1 1/3 cup - maida
3/4 cup - Butter or mix of butter and cream of this quantity
1 - tsp baking powder
1/2 - tsp baking soda
1/2 cup milk
1 cup sugar
2 tsp -vanilla essence
- Mix maida , baking soda, baking powder
- Mix melted butter (mix of butter and cream)+ sugar + vanilla + some milk
- now fold the maida mix in the 2nd step mix slowly.
- keep adding milk, the mixture should fall in ribbon constituency .Ensure its not too runny or thick.
- Pre heat oven to 180 degree
- now put this mix in a greased container and put in oven for 20 minutes at 180 degree.
- check by inserting a knife or pin , if it sticks then bake for some more time, else take out.
This was simplest and best recipe i used so far! Can make it chocklate cake by substituting half maida by cocoa powder
