A soft, delicious cake made with ready-made gulab jamun mix.
Ingredients
- Gulab jamun mix powder: 3/4 cup (I used a 100 g pack of Gits mix)
- All-purpose flour (maida): 3/4 cup
- Powdered sugar: 3/4 cup (use 1 cup if you want it sweeter)
- Fresh cream or milk: 1 cup (I used homemade fresh cream)
- Chopped cashews: 2 tsp (optional)
- Any odourless oil: 1/4 cup
- Baking powder: 1/2 tsp
- Baking soda: 1/4 tsp
- Vanilla essence: 1 tsp
Method
- Put the gulab jamun mix and powdered sugar in a mixer jar and mix thoroughly.
- Sift the maida, baking powder and baking soda into a large bowl.
- Add the gulab jamun mix and sugar mixture, and the cashews. Mix well.
- Blend the fresh cream and vanilla essence in the mixer jar.
- Add the cream to the dry ingredients and fold in gently. There should be no lumps. Add the oil and mix well.
- Pour into a greased tin and bake at 180°C for 35 minutes.
This cake tastes wonderful: soft and delicious. Enjoy it with tea or coffee!
