- Using a hand held whisk or a free standing electric mixer, beat together the butter, sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt on low until the ingredients are well incorporated and resemble fine breadcrumbs.
- Pour the milk into a jug, add the eggs and whisk together. Pour three quarters of the milk mixture into the dry ingredients and beat on a low speed to combine. Raise the speed to medium and continue to mix until smooth and thick. pour the remaining milk mixture and keep mixing until the batter is smooth.
