The recipe book..in English.

My mixer that helped me a lot hahax...

Oh ya I frequently use the one on the left. I recommend to use a standard 8" by 8" baking tin.

Sugar and..

eggs..

mixed..together.

Cocoa powder added and mixed..

Melted butter

Melted butter hand mixed with the mixture.

Put Greaseproof paper around the round tin so that easier to take out when baked.

Lastly, put in oven at 160'c. then ...

The whisking of cream.

Preparing to cream the cake.. Hahax that's fun!!

Fancy a blob of cream on your cake... Hahax no thanks!! I prefer it spreaded out.

Pitted Blueberries.. Nice!!
