I still have no access to my oven in the kitchen that is under repair. So, I am making cakes using my rice cooker, which I found the easiest & most energy-efficient way to cook cakes. Not all cake recipes work well for rice cooker method, but this ‘Chocolate Cake’ recipe works very well. The texture is soft and fluffy, and it can be used for many chocolate cake desserts.
