Please help me make this cake.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Kalyani, I tried this recipe and despite of using whole wheat flour the cake has risen beautifully. I had a few questions -Do you use chakki atta (used for rotis) or white whole wheat flour for baking? I have used white whole wheat baking flour. The cake wasn't sweet to my desired level (probably as the mangoes were not super sweet) - can the sugar be increased? Also it tasted a bit floury - is it okay to reduce the flour quantity a bit?
Thank you for sharing your recipes:)
Kalyani
Hi Remiya, I have tried both atta and white whole wheat flour. Both turned out good.
You can increase the sugar quantity 2 to 3 tbsp extra. As sugar is less, you may felt the cake is floury. Also, try to keep it in the fridge, reheat and eat. It changes the taste to be more good!
