Thums Up cake is primarily a chocolate cake with a super soft and moist texture. The chef begins by preheating the oven to 180 degrees C. In a bowl, she then adds the butter and condensed milk and whisks them together until well combined. After this, she adds cocoa powder, drinks chocolate, and whisks. She then adds in the all-purpose flour (maida), baking powder, and baking soda and gives it a nice mix. Finally, she gradually pours in the Thums Up until it gets a batter-like consistency and bakes it until fully done. Watch the detailed recipe video here:
