CRYING CAKE (Ağlayan Kek)

Ohhhh don't worry! These are happy tears, out of eating too much sweet. I regret to say that this cake is no where near being diet-friendly but it is delicious indeed!

Ingredients:

For the cake

• 4 eggs
• 200 g sugar
• 200 g flour
• 200 cacao
• 80 mL milk
• 40 mL lemon juice-water mixture (half-half)
• Baking powder, 1 teaspoon

For the dressing

• 400 mL milk (plus 200 mL for krem şanti)
• 1 pack of krem şanti (or 300 mL whipped cream)
• Chocolate sauce

Preparation:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C.
• In a bowl, mix the eggs and sugar.
• Add flour, milk, lemon-water mixture, cacao and baking powder, mix well, preferably with an electric mixer.
• Pour into a glaced tray and cook for 30 minutes.
• Take the cake out of the oven and pour milk all over while it is still hot.
• Whip the cream (or mix the krem şanti with 200 mL milk).
• Cook the chocolate sauce (this is sold with the instructions on it but any type of chocolate sauce will do and need not to be cooked).
• When all cooled down, spread the cream onto the cake, then pour the chocolate sauce.
• Slice and decorate with coconut flakes if you like.
