Chai Masala Cake

Chai Masala Cake

A perfect tea-time cake flavoured with Chai Masala. I've used whole wheat flour, brown sugar and the key ingredient is ghee residue.

Notes:

* Sieve whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt for 6-7 times.

* All ingredients should be in room temperature.

* Grease baking tin with oil/ butter.

* Add nuts to the batter or sprinkle on top then bake.
