Chocolate and dates cake

This morning I found that remains of soya milk in my fridge got soured. So I decided to make this sponge cake with them. It turned out very well. Just for gloomy autumn day.

I took:

White flour - 250g
sour soya milk - about 150ml. If you're lucky and your milk is fresh, add 1\2 tea sp. of vinegar to it )
sugar - 2,5 tb.sp.
dates, destoned and chopped - a handful
cocoa-powder - 2,5 tea sp.
baking powder - 1,5 tea sp.
salt - a pinch
water - to make your pastry a bit fluid

Preheat an oven, 180C is enough
Mix all the ingredients together, add water to dilute. Mash until smooth.
Lay out into a greased baking forrm.
Bake until a picking match is dry, around 30 min (depends on your oven, though)


You can add some more cocoa if you like - to make it darker and more chocolate.
