For this all we need is..

First in a bowl put butter or malai watever you want and mix it continously until it gets fluffy… Then in a seive add maida, baking powder, soda and milk powder and sieve it well… Put this mixture in butter and fold it and slowly add some milk,curd and sugar and beat it until it gets fluffy and gives a fluffy smooth texture add vanilla essence and stir it continously…
Cover the baking tray or a tiffin with butter and dust it with some maida… Pour that mixture in that tray and keep it to bake…
For baking you can use otg, gas tandoor, cooker, kadhai any thing…
I am using gas tandoor just put the mixture in tandoor in low flame and keep it for 1 hour.
If you make it in otg, you have to bake it in for 30 mins in 180°c
In cooker remove the lid and rubber, put a stand or some sand(you can use it innumerable times while baking in cooker) keep the container and cover it and let it bake for 45 mins
In kadhai put a stand or sand put the container over it, cover it with a plate and let it cook for 45 mins
Tips:
1) in the batter you can add some dry fruits (kaju, badam, kismis, akhroot) any thing of your choice…
2) if you want to make it choclate cake than add cocoa powder and chocolate chips into to the batter
3) if you want to make Christmas cake than add some tutti fruit, dry fruits ,choco chips into it..
