- 2-3 pinches of salt
Cooking
1. Remember that you can easily replace butter with vegetable oil, milk with warm water, and eggs with bananas, this is especially true in fasting. First, break the eggs into the bowl of a food processor or into a deep, tall container if you are using a mixer. We warm the butter to room temperature - it is important that it is warm and can be mixed in the dough, and not stray into lumps.
2. Put the butter in a bowl, pour in the dry mixture for the cake, pour in the milk - warm, but not hot! Do not add any flavorings and baking powder, do not extinguish the soda with vinegar, otherwise you will get too oversaturated pastries - it's all there in the mixture! If you purchased a mixture with a filler (in the recipe, these are pieces of chocolate), you will add the filler to the dough later (see point 4).
3. First, beat the dough for 2 minutes at low speed, so that everything mixes well, and then 4-5 minutes at high speed, so that the components connect with each other.
4. Add chocolate to the dough.
5. Cover the form with parchment paper and grease it with odorless oil - creamy or vegetable. Pour the dough into the mold. Turn on the oven to 180 degrees and bake the cake for about 1 hour, without increasing the heat, so that it is baked from the inside.

Mix everything thoroughly until the lumps are eliminated and until a homogeneous mass is formed. After that, take out the baking dish and grease it with oil or put paper on it so that the dough does not stick to the bottom. Spread the dough evenly over the entire form and put in the oven for about forty minutes. Readiness can be checked with a regular toothpick: if the dough does not stick to it, then the cake is ready.

Mix all products well until smooth. Try to avoid lumps in the dough, so beat the dough for at least 10 minutes. If you want, you can sprinkle the dough with chocolate chips. Take a baking dish and grease it with oil or put parchment paper on top to make it easier to remove the cookies later. Spread the mixture with a spoon, leaving a small space between each cookie. The dish will be ready in about ten minutes. After taking it out of the oven, let the cookies cool down, and then you can eat it.
