Salt: a pinch
Dry fruits: a handful
Eggs: 2
Powdered milk: 1 cup
Refined oil: 1 cup
How to make it?
First, mix baking soda, baking powder, salt, flour, sugar and powdered milk well and sift through a strainer.
Now break the eggs one by one and beat them well. Beat them in such a way that they become thick and rise like foam.
Then start adding the flour and powdered milk mixture to the eggs, little by little. Don't add too much at once. Otherwise, it will form lumps.
You need to mix the nolen gur according to the consistency of the batter. You also need to ensure that the mixture doesn't become too thin.
After beating well, you need to mix the measured amount of oil into the cake batter.

Finally, mix in the dry fruits, and the batter is ready.
Now, preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes.
Before pouring the cake mixture into the baking pan, spray a little oil.
Pour the cake batter into the pan and put it in the oven for 45 minutes.
In between, you can open the oven once and insert a toothpick into the cake to check if it has baked properly.
If the cake sticks to the stick, you need to bake it for another five minutes.
Then take the cake out of the oven and sprinkle nolen gur on top, and you're done.
