This cake has a blend of two different flavors, dominating being the flavor of strawberry.. You can play with other essence of your choice.



Ingredients:
  1. Egg- 2
  2. All purpose flour- 2 glass
  3. Sugar- 2 1/2 glass 
  4. Tovin essence- 1Tbs
  5. Vanilla essence- 1/2 Tbs
  6. Baking soda- 2 Tbs
  7. Milk- 1/4 glass
  8. Butter / oil- 250 gms /1 glass
  9. Roasted Almonds
  10. Raisins
  11. salt- pinch

Procedure:

To make the Strawberry flavored cake batter:

In a bowl break open one egg add little salt and whisk it properly till it turns frothy.
In the mixer powder the sugar. Add a glass of powdered sugar, all purpose flour, 1 Tbs baking powder. Mix all these evenly with the whisked eggs. Add melted butter, little milk and tovin essence.

To make Vanilla flavored cake batter:

In a bowl break open one egg add little salt and whisk it properly till it turns frothy.
Add all the remaining powdered sugar, all purpose flour, baking powder. Mix all these evenly with the whisked eggs.
Finally add the melted butter, milk and essence and give a good stir.

Grease the cake mold with butter / oil pour the vanilla flavored cake batter, dash it with roasted almonds, raisins. Now slowly pour the strawberry flavored cake batter in a zig zag / Criss cross way. This way you will see a good blended layer of vanilla and strawberry.

Put in the micro wave for about 5-6 mins in the microwave mode. I keep a glass of water in the microwave by this the moisture of the cake with remain intact and cake would be soft and fluffy.
After 5 mins open the microwave door and let the cake rest for a while. Slice the cake when it completely cools down. If you prefer having a crunchy cake microwave for 7 mins.
