Eggless Date Walnut Cake

March 3rd, 2009

I found this Egg less Date Walnut Cake in the dessert section in Sify Food. I had slightly changed the proportions of the ingredients. This is the first cake that I baked even before the Banana Rava Cake. But posting the recipe bit late. The cake came out very well and I was happy about my first baking experience. Here is the egg less date cake recipe.
