Vanilla Cake - In Electric Rice Cooker (Write For Us Contest Entry - 100)

This is from my mom’s kitchen. Earlier, my mom had no experience of baking in oven. She has got an idea of doing a cake in pressure cooker method. It is easy to use if not having oven at home. I am currently staying abroad and I don’t have proper pressure cooker on the stove top. I had used an electric rice cooker for making this cake and it came out well. Hope you all will like the Vanilla Cake preparation.
