Receita de Bolo Mesclado Fofinho Sem Leite no Liquidificador

Se você está procurando uma receita prática e deliciosa para o café da manhã, esse bolo mesclado fofinho sem leite é a opção perfeita! Feito no liquidificador, ele é rápido de preparar e resulta em um bolo úmido, macio e com um visual incrível graças ao efeito mesclado do chocolate. Ideal para quem tem restrições ao leite ou simplesmente quer variar no preparo.

Ingredientes

  • 1 xícara de açúcar
  • 3 ovos
  • 1/2 xícara de óleo vegetal
  • 1 xícara de água quente
  • 2 xícaras de farinha de trigo
  • 1 colher de sopa de fermento em pó
  • 3 colheres de sopa de chocolate em pó

Modo de Preparo

Tempo total: 50 minutos

  1. Bater os ingredientes no liquidificador
    Comece adicionando no liquidificador os ovos, o açúcar e o óleo. Bata bem até obter uma mistura homogênea.
  2. Adicione a água e a farinha
    Com o liquidificador ainda ligado, acrescente aos poucos a água quente. Em seguida, vá adicionando a farinha de trigo aos poucos, até a massa ficar lisa e bem misturada.
  3. Adicione o fermento
    Desligue o liquidificador e misture o fermento em pó com uma colher, delicadamente, para não perder a leveza da massa.
  4. Divida a massa
    Separe metade da massa em um outro recipiente. Na parte que ficou no liquidificador, adicione o chocolate em pó e bata até ficar bem incorporado.
  5. Montagem do bolo mesclado
    Em uma forma untada e enfarinhada, despeje a massa branca. Depois, acrescente a massa com chocolate por cima. Com a ajuda de um garfo, faça movimentos circulares para criar o efeito mesclado.
  6. Assar
    Leve ao forno preaquecido a 180°C e asse por cerca de 35 a 40 minutos, ou até que um palito inserido no meio do bolo saia limpo.

Dicas Finais

  • O segredo para o bolo ficar bem fofinho é bater bem os ingredientes líquidos no liquidificador.
  • Se preferir, você pode substituir o chocolate em pó por cacau em pó para um sabor mais intenso.

Esse bolo mesclado é perfeito para acompanhar um café fresquinho ou uma xícara de chá, trazendo um toque especial ao café da manhã ou lanche da tarde!

Letter IX “A Day’s Venture” | Pacific Paratrooper

New Guinea WWII

Letter IX                                            “A Day’s Venture”                           Monday 6/26/44

Dear Mom,

Yesterday, being Sunday, a day of rest, I decided to ride around this place and see something.  I made up my mine though that this sightseeing tour of mine, this time, would be done as a civilian completely forgetting I’m in the army.  You have to do this in order to see the place in its true light, otherwise if you don’t all you can see is hardship and work.  With my mind cleared of Khaki, I set forth in a jeep with a buddy of mine; who I dare say couldn’t see the sense of our venture.

As we drove along in the still quiet, the thought kept coming to me of the enormous job the boys before us had to confront and overcome.  Here and there along the way you could see some old emplacement or deserted village.  These villages were really something to see with their straw-thatched roofs and open sided houses.  We wouldn’t call them shed, but that is just what they looked like.

One can readily understand why the authors of those travelogues really go all out when describing these islands.  You forget the heat as cooling breezes blow over you from the coast and the shade of the giant coconut trees gradually engulf you.

We passed one spot close to the coast that suddenly shook us with the horrible realization of our place and mission.  It wasn’t large or spread out, but all was peaceful and quiet though men were gaily chatting and swimming nearby.  We entered by an archway on which was inscribed, “Japanese Cemetery.”  We passed now upon some of the little white markers all neatly lined up and lettered.  Although they were once an active enemy, one could not help but see the shame and waste of war.

We looked around the beach for a while, then decided to go in for a swim.  The water here is amazingly warm and clear.  You could never believe it unless you could see it as I have.  How crystal clear and immune of blemish this water here is.  Why, to peer down 25 feet and see bottom is really an easy thing to do.  The bottom is sand, sand at its finest and whitest literally covered with shells of every shape and color with here and there a grotesque piece of coral.  You can really pick out the coral as it shows up a faint green while the shells throw all colors of the rainbow up at you until your eyes are completely dazzled by the many-colored lights.

By this time, the sun was well on its way toward the horizon and dusk rapidly approaching.  Here and there a faint star twinkled until suddenly the sky was almost completely covered with thousands.  The moon finally appeared in all its bright glory and reflected itself a hundred times over on the waves before us.  The end of the day had come and with it also my venture into a world never to be forgotten.  This day will long be remembered and stored with the rest of my most treasured memories.

Good night!  And may God bless you,  Everett

PS.  I shall write to Joe Dumb as soon as I send this letter on its way.  Be good and take care of yourself.
