Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
Supporting Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
Decorative Ingredient:
- White icing
Instructions
- Set your oven to precisely 350F and grease a 9-inch cake pan with butter.
- Cream ½ cup softened butter with 1 cup sugar until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
- Crack 2 large eggs into the butter mixture and blend in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until completely incorporated.
- Sift 2 cups flour with 1 teaspoon baking powder and ½ teaspoon salt in a separate container.
- Slowly integrate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently to prevent overmixing.
- Pour 1 cup milk into the batter, stirring until the consistency becomes smooth and even.
- Sprinkle 1 cup chocolate chips through the batter, distributing them evenly with a gentle folding motion.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it uniformly with a spatula.
- Slide the pan into the preheated oven and bake for precisely 32 minutes.
- Test the cake’s doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center – it should emerge completely clean.
- Allow the cake to cool for 15 minutes at room temperature.
- Decorate the cooled cake surface with white icing, creating bandage-like strips to resemble a mummy’s wrappings.
Notes
- Check the chocolate chip distribution so each slice gets an even amount of chocolate.
- Carefully fold chocolate chips to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake during baking.
- Ensure your cake pan is well-greased and lined with parchment paper for easy removal.
- When decorating with white icing to create mummy bandages, use a piping bag for clean, crisp lines that look like authentic wrapped bandages.
