Fluffy chocolate cake - Fluffig chokladkaka

FLUFFY CHOCOLATE CAKE
Fluffig chokladkaka

When baking this cocoa-flavoured cake, you can use leftover egg whites if you have any. Make it extra festive by glazing it with melted chocolate and decorate with berries.

1 cake

6 egg whites
5 to 6 drops fresh lemon juice
(to help the egg whites go up)
1 cup sugar
2/3 cup flour
4 tablespoons cocoa
1 teaspoon vanilla sugar

Decoration:
3½ oz chocolate
1 teaspoon oil
strawberries or other fresh berries


Beat egg whites and lemon juice until fluffy, add good ¾ cup sugar and beat until stiff. Mix remaining sugar with flour, cocoa and vanilla sugar. Stir this with the egg whites and pour the batter in a greased cake ring (Bundt pan), holding 6 cups, and bake in the lower part of the oven at 350F for about 50 minutes.

Allow to cool in the pan, then unmould onto a plate. Melt the chocolate in a waterbath and blend in the oil. Drizzle the chocolate on the cake and decorate with berries.

Enjoy!
