Ingredients

3 cups semi-coarse flour
3 tablespoons cocoa
2 cups kefir
2 cups powdered sugar
½ cup oil
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 packet vanilla sugar

For decoration:

chocolate glaze (to taste)
grated coconut (optional)

Preparation procedure

Preparing the batter: In a large bowl, mix the semi-coarse flour, cocoa, kefir, sugar, oil, baking soda and vanilla sugar. Beat everything thoroughly with an electric mixer until a smooth, semi-liquid batter forms. The batter is moist thanks to the kefir and does not require eggs.
Baking: Pour the finished batter into a baking pan lined with baking paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 170 °C for about 30 minutes. Check doneness with the classic skewer test – if it comes out dry, the cake is done.
Final touches: Once cooled, pour chocolate glaze over the cake and sprinkle grated coconut to taste. You can also use chopped nuts, candied fruit or another favorite decoration.
