Eggless Zebra Cake / Vanilla cocoa cake

1 · ·

Welcome to the 7th day of Baking Mania. Today I thought of trying zebra cake. It’s the combination of vanilla and chocolate flavor. I am not sure if I can call this cake as zebra cake, that’s why included vanilla and cocoa cake. The base recipe was taken from Gayathri’s blog but the measurement got changed. This time not to blame the kiddo it was my fault. I miscalculated while converting from Gms to cups and added ¼ cup of cocoa powder. Also Gayathri recipe calls for 1/3 of cocoa mixture but because of the measurement mistake I took ½ of cocoa mixture and ½ of vanilla mixture. Because of increase in cocoa I had to add more milk too. . I thought it’s going to be sodappal only.  But it was pure sheer luck that it turned out ok. As it had more chocolate flavor, it turned it into bite sized pieces and served along with vanilla ice cream and it became a huge hit.
