#NoOvenBaking I have recreated Masterchef Neha’s # noovenbaking series third recipe & I really thank miss Neha for making baking & cooking much easier. Decadence means luxury Or extravagance.As the word describes itself it’s totally fantastic in taste. Rich in look & tastes delicious. I added little touch to this recipe in my style to recreate it ..! I named it decadent chocolate shell as I gave it a shape of shell .

Steps

40-45 minutes

1

Firstly sieve all the dry ingredients & set aside
2

Whisk all the wet ingredients using a hand whisk or stand mixer
3

Now add both & roughly mix via cut & fold method make sure do not over mix the batter. Mix only till the ingredients are settled to dry & wet & it’s looks like a rough batter. Then grease bowl with butter then add the batter besides preheat the Kadai for 5-10 minutes prior then set it on 1 inch ring below the salt is heated well.
4

Now set the burner on high for 10 minutes then on low burner for 20-25 minutes once it’s done check using a toothpick or butter knife check if the stick comes out dry it’s done
5

Remove it & let it cool well on a wire rack or anything on which it will be set from both sides then brush the cake top with milk
6

While it’s being settled gradually we will get ready with frosting & topping of walnuts
7

Make a ganache first dip half of the walnuts around 3-4 then freeze it for sometime
8

With leftover the chocolate ganache with heavy cream which Is very hot so that it makes easy to make a nice frosting whisk it & it’s ready
9

Once things are ready let’s get with the frosting pick the cake layer it from middle and add two teaspoons of strawberry sauce I got it readymade then add the frosting around it then set back the upper layer
10

Now just do the complete cake frosting then make swirls & set the walnuts prepared & lastly sprinkle the cocoa powder. The delicious decadent chocolate shell cake is ready serve it cool. Set in refrigerator for about 1-2 hours & enjoy it. I can assure every bite of cake will give you multiple flavores of coffee, vanilla, pineapple, chocolate,cream,strawberry sauce ohhh m already drooling for this Mashaallah...!!
11

Tip of the day: guys make sure wet ingredients are @ room temperature so that you don’t have to work hard on it & the curd & chocolate in the cake will give a next level taste so I try to skip veniger. It’s better to use buttermilk or curd goes well either...!
