Ingredients
 

  • 4 Eggs
  • 500 ml Sugar
  • 250 ml Milk
  • 250 ml Oil
  • 3 tbsp Cocoa
  • 1 Pck. Vanilla sugar
  • 500 ml Flour
  • 1 Pck. Baking powder

Instructions
 

Annotation:

  • First of all, it should be said that the milliliter (ml) specification is not my idea. But I took them because when I re-weighed I found that the values ​​for "grams" are different. So that the cake works well, I simply measured everything in the measuring cup at "ml" and it worked. It's actually wonderfully uncomplicated and super fast - like the whole cake. You don't even need a hand mixer.

Preparation:

  • Preheat the oven to 180 °. Line a round (approx. 26 cm diameter) or a correspondingly large rectangular shape on the bottom with baking paper and grease the edge well.

Dough:

  • Put all ingredients - except flour and baking powder (!) - in a large bowl and mix with a whisk to a smooth, liquid mass. ATTENTION: Set aside 250 ml of this and keep it.
  • Mix the flour with the baking powder and sift in portions into the remaining sugar-oil-cocoa mixture. Beat each time vigorously with the whisk until no more flour can be seen.
  • Pour the dough into the mold and bake for 35 - 45 minutes on the middle rack. The baking time varies depending on the stove and the size of the pan. After 35 minutes I already did the stick test and no more dough stuck to it.
  • Then take the cake out of the oven immediately, turn it over onto a heat-resistant surface, remove the baking paper and immediately pour the remaining dough - evenly distributed - over the cake. Now let the cake cool down well.
  • The cake is worth imitating. It is soft and very juicy thanks to the dough that has been drawn in. It is super quick to prepare - who wants to stand in the kitchen for a long time in this climate - and still a little "burner".
  • Whoever has Turkish roots and thinks this cake is "not Turkish", may forgive me for the name of the cake, but I took it from the "found recipe" and, as I know some dishes and baked goods from Turkish cuisine, I found it I quite aptly named the name.
