Nutella Cake

Wanted to make a mini cake for hubba's birthday. Supply was running low and finally decided to bake a simple nutella cake in my mini rice cooker. I modified the recipe given.

1) cake
 1 cup nutella
 10 tbsp flour (90g) (self raising)
 2 eggs
100g milk

I whisked the nutella with the milk first to get a smooth batter. Added eggs, whisk and then sift in the flour. Mix all till combined.

Pour batter into the mini pot and press the cake function.

2) Ganache Filling
I did not measure how much. I just added unsweetened cocoa powder and sugar till I like the taste. Whisk with some water and slowly heat in pot. Make sure the liquid is not too watery or runny. It should be thick. I whisked in some mascaprone too on whim to try the taste. Surprisingly yummy! Adds depth to the mixture. It sorts of balances the bitter cocoa taste. Pour over the cake and let cool till a little harden. Place in fridge covered till ready to consume!

Bought a mini rice cooker and it's no brainer that I will use it to try a mini version of a cake. Decided to try a mini butter cake.

50g sugar
50g butter
2 small eggs

Very easy to remember! :)

Method:
Cream melted butter with sugar.
Add the eggs.
Sift flour in.
Mix gently till combined.
Pour into greased pot and press CAKE function.
Remove pot when cooked.
Invert pot and let cool completely before removing.

Not bad. A tad too sweet for me. May cut down on the sugar the next try.
