Use knife to check the cake cook well or not, it should come out clean. If the knife is sticky, then place the cake bake in the oven and continue to bake for some more minutes. The cake should be cool completely before frosting.

For the frosting: Take two tbsp butter and four tbsp sugar in a saucepan. Heat and melt the butter. Also the sugar should dissolve. Once the sugar has dissolved switch off the stove top. The sugar should be just dissolved. We don't need to cook the sugar in its various stages. Next add four tbsp cocoa powder. With a spatula stir so that the cocoa powder gets mixed evenly with the butter-sugar mixture. Add three tbsp milk, Stir well and cocoa frosting is ready. Now, until this is hot either you can spread the frosting on the top of cake , around the sides of cake or make round in centre and fill with frosting Use a dome shape bowl to cover the cake and keep it in the fridge for the frosting to set.   When frosting set, cut into slices and serve. If you want you can strain some icing powder before serving.
