Chocolate Cake for Hubby

I baked this cake for my hubby’s birthday celebration last year. Sajer.. wanna test my credibility as a cook.. hehe..

We also threw a small party aka mini open house for raya celebration at the same time. We invited only a small group of friends to come over.. yer la.. the apartment very small, if invited too many people nanti sumer kena berdiri rapat2 plak sambil makan.

The menu were, my version of mee rebus.. i put mashed sweet potatoes, i used the white ones.. u can use the orange potatoes but it could be too sweet.. (rebus dulu yer before mash the sweet potatoes). I also put a secret ingredient.. not ajinomoto ek.. i blended 1 cup of fried kulit udang & added it into my kuah mee rebus. Actually, u can add this secret ingredient (well.. not so secret anymore!) into mee kari, mee jawa.. mee kuah.. ape2 lah.. but mee soto jgn la.. x sesuai.. other than that, resepi sama mcm resepi mee rebus yg biasa.

I also prepared the Triffle Pudding with strawberry jelly topping. This pudding is 1 of my family’s fav dessert. The recipe, almost similar to resepi puding buah kastard.. cuma swiss roll at the bottom & strawberry jelly on top. Memang menggemukkan.. tpi this time i skipped the swiss roll.. x sempat beli :-p

So, this is the recipe of my choc cake.. i got this recipe from my cousin’s wife 10 years ago. Selalu jugak prepared this cake utk my family punyer birthday parties..

So people.. dig in.
