🥳💐 Happy Birthday Cookpad India. 🌹🎈
It's Celebration Time as Cookpad India turns 7. Time for fun , frolic and merriment .
For me also twin Celebration Time as my husband's Birthday falls on 2 nd Dec . It is a double Celebration for me . So I am elated . I made this Date , Walnut Mocha Slice , a healthy & hearty Cake Loaf for both the occasions .
Dates are rich in anti- oxideting properties & walnuts help in the brain' s functioning . They are known as Brain Food . Almonds are good for ❤️, regulates blood sugar & blood pressure , to list a few of the benefits of these dry fruits. All in all WHOLESOMENESS in a cake .
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Deseed the dates & soak them in warm milk for 30 minutes. Then grind them in batches to a fine paste. Do not grind them all together or they will stick to the walls of the mixer.

Take all the dry ingredients in a bowl.Sieve them together 2-3 times so everything is incorporated very well. Add powdered walnuts & almonds.

Now take a wide bowl, add dry ingredients & mix well.

Note. : As I have used more dates, then what the recipe calls for, taste & add sugar accordingly. The recipe takes 1/4 cup sugar, but I have used only 2 tsp. It's sweet enough for us.
Also keep an eye on the cake after 35 minutes as baking time varies from oven to oven.
