Healthy Chocolate Semolina Cake Recipe
Advertisement
Indian families are generally fond of Semolina. I had a lot of suji ka halwa while I was a kid. But back then, never heard about a chocolate semolina cake recipe from anyone.
I opted semolina (raw) to use as a base. Why semolina?Because it fits into all the parameters, that i wanted. Healthy without using wheat flour, light without using all-purpose flour. It is light and fluffy so cake will be light. The cake after baking will be soft and moist. Moreover it is known as superfood.
This is a pure vegetarian eggless chocolate semolina cake recipe.

Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl take Semolina, powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Mix dry ingredients. Add fresh yogurt, oil and chocolate essence to the dry ingredients. Mix it.
- Start adding milk to it to make a batter. Add half of the milk and keep the rest milk aside. Prepare a smooth batter and let this batter rest for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile keep the oven for preheating at 180 °C.
- Now add the rest of the milk to the batter. Batter should be of pouring consistency. Add Salt, Baking powder and Baking soda to the batter and whisk it well.
- Pour the batter into a greased baking tin (8ââ¬Â inches). Bake it in a preheated oven for 25 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Once cake is baked, take it out from the oven and de-mould it. Place the de-moulded cake on a wired rack and let it cool completely.
Notes
- Ensure you give 10 minutes of resting time when you soak semolina with wet ingredients.
- Just want to make Semolina cake without chocolate, remember to include 30gm of of semolina instead of 30gm of cocoa powder.
- Do not use stale curd. The recipe will completely get spoiled. Only fresh curd/yogurt that is sweet in taste.
- Use flavourless oil.
- If you feel that your batter is thick, add milk accordingly. The batter needs to be of pouring consistency, but not runny.
- Do not use roasted semolina for this recipe.
- Use fine semolina (sooji).
