Okay, so I know I’ve already posted a recipe for Coconut Gugelhupf but if you want to try one of these recipes, please make this one. It’s one of my new favourite recipes!
It’s a 5 minute recipe and I kid you not – it really is super quick, easy to make and quite fool-proof! (Aren’t all of my recipes? Should I maybe reflect on my lack of patience?)
Like the last recipe for a Gugelhupf it’s basically a “Becherkuchen” which, if you remember, translates to “Cup Cake”, meaning you use the same cup to measure all ingredients.
In most cases of these cup-recipes I use the cup that held the sour cream, or yoghurt.
Ingredients
1 cup of sour cream (250g)
1 cup of sugar
1/2 cup of vegetable oil
1 cup of cocoa
1 cup of flour
1 cup of coconut flakes
1 package of baking powder (I used roughly 3 level teaspoons)
3 eggs
What to do
Pre-heat the oven to 180°C.
Put together the sour cream, eggs, oil, and sugar and mix for around 5 minutes. Then add the remaining ingredients. Mix well and pour it into a buttered form. Bake for 1 hour.
You can also put chocolate icing on it, or just powder sugar, whatever you prefer. If you don’t like coconut you can use nuts instead.
