Spongyy Spongyyy eggless cake !!!!!

Humm, its christmas ...want to prepare cake on my Own,but its friday tooo...I am a vegetarian on friday ;)
What 2 doooooo ? googled few egg less cake recipies and finally did in my own wayy...

Eggless sponge cake:

1 cup maida
1/2 cup condensed milk ( nestle milk maid will help)
1/4 cup Butter
1 tsp vanilla essence
2 tblsp baking powder
1/2 cup milk
1 cup finely grinded sugar with  2 to 3elaichi
cherries,
edible food color ( I have used dark merune and kesar food colors mixed to acheive this output)

1) Sieve the dry ingredients
2) Now mix condensed milk to the above sieved mixture, also add some water, essence, and melted butter,add milk to make the batter thin
3) Mix the mixture well.add cherries and edible colour. Now put in a greased baking tray.
4) Bake it for 10 minutes under 200degree Celsius and on 180 degree for another 10 minutes.
5) Insert a toothpick and if nothing sticks to it means cake is done. Let it cool for sometime.
Then turn over and tap from back to remove.

Note : I used Electric cooker. I nicely greased the container with butter and then dusted with maida.
Dusting is important here.Then added the cake batter into it.

The cooker button comes up every five minutes and it is a bit work consuming to get it down every ten minutes.But the final cake makes you forget ur hardwork...trust me !!!
