So, let's dive in—grab your apron and flex those baking muscles! Start by preheating your oven to 180 C (because warm hugs, but for your batter). Grease a cake tin with a swipe of butter and a sprinkle of maida—it's the non-stick magic we all need.

Now, in a mixing bowl, sift together the dry squad: 2 cups of whole wheat flour, a modest 0.05 tsp each of baking powder and baking soda, 0.05 cup milk powder (creamy vibes incoming), and 2 tsp corn flour for that delicate bounce. Toss in 0.05 cup mixed dry fruits because why not add a lil' pizzazz to every bite? Meanwhile, on the wet team, mix 1.05 cups of jaggery with 1 cup of warm milk until it's all melty and golden—like sunshine in a bowl.

Stir in 2 tsp vanilla essence (aromatic glory) and 2 tsp apple cider vinegar to let the cake rise like a pro.

Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mix, folding gently to keep that batter airy and fluffy. And yes, resist the urge to overmix—it's not a workout, people! Now, pour this dreamy batter into your prepped tin, leveling the top with a spatula for that bakery-perfect finish.

Pop it into the oven, and let it bake for a good 35–40 minutes. Your kitchen? It'll smell like cozy afternoons and happiness in no time.

Check doneness with a toothpick—if it comes out clean, you're golden. Cool the cake completely before slicing, so it holds its shape (patience is a virtue, bestie!).
