It tasted very good and it's very easy to make. I made it in a pressure cooker, so it took a little longer to bake. And I messed up with baking powder quantity and didn't properly mix the cream.As I'm still learning. But the taste was 10/10.Best cake I have made so far.

This is easiest, most fool-proof veg. cake recipe. It's moist and has intensely chocolate flavour. Must try for anyone with a sweet-tooth. An amazing recipe to start your baking journey as a newbie!
