Delicious Dream Cake Recipe: A Chocolate Lover’s Dream/

Hello and Assalamu Alaikum everyone. Welcome to Muhammad Milon Pramanik's Kitchen on our website at DailyNexus! Today, I’m excited to share my incredibly easy and low-cost Dream Cake recipe. With just one egg and a few common ingredients, you can create a dessert that looks and tastes like it came from a professional bakery.

Ingredients Overview

Below is a quick table of the main ingredients used in this recipe:

Ingredient	Quantity	Notes
Egg	1 (at room temperature)	You can beat the yolk and white together or separately.
Sugar	1/3 cup	Add gradually while beating the egg.
Flour	1/3 cup	Sifted before folding in.
Cocoa Powder	2 tablespoons	Sifted with dry ingredients.
Baking Powder	A very small pinch	Or substitute with baking soda.
Salt	1/4 teaspoon	Enhances flavor.
Chocolate Essence	1/2 teaspoon	You may substitute with vanilla essence if preferred.

Note: For larger cakes, simply increase the number of eggs and adjust the ingredient quantities accordingly.

Step 1: Preparing the Egg and Batter

Begin by taking an egg (if it was in the refrigerator, leave it out for about 10 minutes until it reaches room temperature). Beat the egg using an electric beater until frothy. Then, gradually add 1/3 cup of sugar in two additions and continue beating on medium speed for about 2 minutes—this will create a light, foamy mixture.

Step 2: Baking the Cake

Prepare your cake mold by brushing a little oil inside. Pour the batter into the mold and spread it evenly with a stick to eliminate any large air bubbles. Lightly tap the mold twice on the counter to settle the batter.

Step 3: Preparing the Chocolate Ganache & Cream

Chocolate Ganache

For the ganache, melt 50 grams of milk (or dark) chocolate with 100 grams of whipped cream. You can melt them together in a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth.

Cake Cream

In a mixing bowl, combine 1/3 cup of chilled whipped cream with 2 tablespoons of condensed milk (or icing sugar for added sweetness). Beat the mixture for about one minute, then add 1/2 teaspoon of chocolate essence and beat for an additional minute. The cream should be soft enough to fall off the spatula easily.

Step 4: Assembling the Dream Cake

Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven while still hot. Soak it immediately with a sugar syrup made by mixing 1 tablespoon of sugar with 1/2 cup of water. Allow the cake to cool to room temperature before applying the whipped cream evenly over the surface.

Chef's Tip: The secret to a spongy, moist cake is to gently fold in the ingredients and not to rush the mixing process. This helps maintain the egg foam, ensuring a light texture.

Final Thoughts

After about two hours, your Dream Cake is ready to be enjoyed! The final result is a tempting, delicious cake that looks as if it was made in a professional kitchen. I hope you enjoy making and eating this cake as much as I do.
