Something light, something that doesn’t require a glass of milk or water to be washed down.

                                              

Just like for most the cakes, you'll need butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla, flour, milk, and cocoa powder but here I used homemade shortening in this recipe instead of butter

While you can use unsalted butter or any type of cooking oil except for olive oil or corn oil  as both are on  contain flavors

For the best result follow my detailed step-by-step photo instructions and tips above the recipe card

                                    

Recipe notes:

1. Before you start you have to make sure all ingredients are at room temperature, especially the butter or shortening, milk, and eggs. this will ensure the ingredients will combine easily without overheating the batter
2. If you have forgotten to take them out of the fridge ahead of time, you can quickly soften the butter using the microwave for 5-10 seconds. you can do the same with milk
3. To quickly bring the eggs to room temperature, place them in the bowl with warm water for about 5 minutes or so.
