Eggless Oreo Cake | Jhatpat Microwave Cake in 5 minutes

This super duper easy and quick cake would always remain special to me and there's a reason for that. Here I have to admit that never ever in my life so far, have I been able to make a cake successfully. Somehow, the forces from above have always kept me from making that delusional perfect spongy cake. But yesterday was different. After a string of failed attempts, I have succeeded in making a spongy and delectable cake. I was so excited that I just couldn't wait for garnishing the cake, I just had to dig into it!

I came across the recipe for this cake on a Facebook page and never thought that I could really execute it as I believed my baking attempts are jinxed forever. But on the insistence of a friend who had successfully tried it, I went ahead and took the plunge.

For those like me who have never dared to venture into the world of baking, this is a must-try!

Here's what you need:


EGGLESS OREO CAKE RECIPE


Preparation time: 5 mins                                                    Cooking time: 5 mins


Ingredients

Oreo biscuits - 19
Milk - 1 cup
Eno - 3/4 tsp or Baking powder - 1/2 tsp


Method
  1. First crush all the Oreo biscuits to a powder consistency.
  2. Add milk and whisk it all well till it rises to about twice in volume.
  3. Grease a glass bowl or a microwavable dish that is deep enough with olive oil or butter.
  4. Add the Eno/baking powder to the batter and transfer the contents to the greased dish.
  5. Put the bowl in the microwave on high power for 5 minutes.
  6. Check if the cake is done. If not, microwave it for some more time, keeping a close watch.
  7. Once it is done, leave undisturbed for 15 minutes before garnishing/serving.

Note:
  1. I used the original Oreo biscuits. You can also try the other variations.
  2. You can also add a drop of vanilla essence into the batter for enhanced flavour.

This was the first time I baked a cake but certainly was not the last! I will endeavour to move ahead from here and improve my baking skills.
