***********************************************************************************************

One day it was raining cats and dogs and I wanted to eat lots of cake but all the pastry shops were closed, so I decided to make my own cake. At first I thought it will be like building a castle in the air as it was my first time baking.

I decided to take up the challenge and try something new. I started by taking out all the  ingredients and looking at my sister Aanshikha’s special cake recipe.

I put together the flour, milk, chocolate syrup, sugar, cocoa powder, oil, water, baking soda and baking powder. 

I put the dry ingredients in one bowl and wet ingredients in another. Then I mixed both of them carefully together and placed it in the oven. I held my horses till the oven went ding! To my surprise, I realized it was the best cake I  ever had.

I realized that cooking is a piece of cake!
