Simple, easy and delicious chocolate cake. Don’t have a scale? No worries — this cake is made without weighing anything, using a spoon for the dry ingredients and a glass for the oil. I used small chocolate eggs to decorate the cake. Don’t forget to sift the flour with the cocoa and the baking powder, otherwise unsightly lumps may form. It really takes very little to prepare a simple cake.
