She then repeated the process with another packet, breaking it down before pouring milk over the crushed biscuits.She mixed everything together until it formed a thick batter and then placed the bowl inside the oven to bake. While waiting for the cake, Ashu chopped some almonds, which she later used to garnish the freshly baked dessert. She eventually pulled the cake out and showed off the finished result before the video cut to the captain tasting it. After taking a bite, he appeared pleased with the homemade creation and gave it a thumbs-up.“Baked a cake for our Captain’s last flight, and seeing everyone enjoy it made my heart so full,” Ashu wrote in the caption.
