Eggless Lamingtons~~ Baking Eggless Challenge

A lamington is a sponge cake of Australia,this cube shaped sponge cake are coated traditionally with chocolate icing and then with dessicated coconut. These lamingtons are in my to do list since a long, thank god Gayathri choosed these famous Australian lamingtons for this month's baking eggless challenge. Finally i made these super addictive cute lamingtons at home, thanks Gayathri for this lovely choice.

As this challenge goes for baking eggless, i went for a eggless condensed milk sponge vanilla cake and this eggless sponge cake turned out extremely spongy and truly soft. Later i quickly prepared a dark chocolate icing  for the coating and rolled them over dessicated coconut twice for the final touch.My lil one just enjoyed having this addictive lamingtons and for my surprise they vanished very much quickly obviously i went for making second batch of these lamingtons again. 




For Eggless Lamingtons:
2cups All purpose flour
1/2cup Sugar
1/2cup Sweetened Condensed milk
1cup Butter
1tsp Baking powder
1/2tsp Baking Soda
1tsp Vanilla Essence
1/4cup Milk


Preheat the oven to 350F, line a baking sheet over a square mould. Beat together the butter and sugar until they turns creamy.


Add the sweetened condensed milk,vanilla essence,milk to it and beat again until the mixture turns soft.


Meanwhile sift the flour with baking soda and baking powder. Now add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients ,mix with a spatula until everything get well mixed,dont overmix.


Pour the cake batter to the already prepared mould and bake in middle rack for 20-25minutes until a skewer inserted comes out clean.


Keep aside and let the cake gets completely cool.


For Icing:
1+1/2cups Chocolate chips
2tbsp Butter
1/2cup Milk
1cup Powdered Sugar
1tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder
2tbsp Boiling water
Dessicated coconut as per need

Cut the into two rectangles first and keep aside.

Make a chocolate icing by melting together the chocolate chips,butter,milk and sugar in a microwave safe bowl for 3-4minutes, mix it well.

Now add the unsweetened cocoa powder to the icing and mix well again.

Spread generously the chocolate icing over one layer of the eggless sponge cake and then top with another layer of the cake.

Cut the cake as medium sized squares as u desire. Now whisk the boiling water to the already prepared icing and mix well.

With your fingers dip the lamingtons in the chocolate icing and roll them immediately to the dessicated coconut until the lamingtons gets well coated on all sides, roll again the lamingtons to the dessicated coconut twice for a beautiful coating.

Let them sit on a wire cooling rack until the chocolate icing gets firms.

Enjoy with a cup of hot tea.
