I have this habit of making something when I go for lunch parties in my family. I don’t know why I do that though we don’t do such a thing normally! I feel quite uneasy going empty handed to have lunch, and more than buying something, I prefer baking a cake or making some snacks by myself. Whenever I go to my aunt’s house, I always bake a cake, knowing that all my cousins have a terrible sweet tooth – just like me – and they have told me several times before that they anxiously wait for my bakes. Now that is a compliment in itself, isn’t it? There are times when my cousins come over home for lunch with the “bahaana” (means, reason) that they want to have my desserts. So much so for my cousins… 🙂
So during one of the lunches that my aunt called us for – by the way, she makes awesome neychoru and beef curry… amn’t I salivating just typing this here! – I baked this cake that I had bookmarked long time back. Nobody would believe that it was eggless! What more, the perfect marriage of chocolate and coffee made this cake perfect for tea time… Recipe from here
