In this article you will find three delicious cake recipes for children that the whole family can bake together and enjoy together.

Almost all children love desserts and sweet treats. But as a parent, you need to give it to them in a healthy and nutritious way so that you can avoid processed products. You should always offer your child homemade food with natural ingredients whenever possible. 

1. Chocolate cake – a true classic

We start with the king inside the cake world, which is a favorite among both children and adults: the chocolate cake. The recipe we have chosen is so simple that children can even make it on their own. We guarantee you that the end result is spectacular!

Ingredients 

• 3/4 cup baking chocolate
• 3 eggs
• ½ cup sugar
• 4 tbsp. butter
• 2 tbsp. flour

Course of action 

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.

2. Melt the chocolate. To do this, first cut it into smaller pieces. Then either put it over a water bath or add a teaspoon of water and melt it in the microwave.

3. Watch while it melts. Stir with a wooden spoon to prevent it from burning. Stirring can also help it melt evenly.

4. When the chocolate is ready, add sugar, melted butter, flour and egg yolks from three eggs.

5. Beat the egg whites until the top becomes stiff. Then pour it into the rest of the mixture.

6. Grease a cake tin with butter and add the mixture.

7. Bake the cake for half an hour at 180 degrees.

Once you have taken it out of the cake tin and when it has cooled off, you can decorate it with icing or crumbs.

2. Strawberry cheesecake not to be in the oven
