I baked this moist, yummy, and perfect double chocolate cake for my family the other day, and it was a hit! The cake was so rich and chocolatey, and the frosting was the perfect complement. My kids loved it, and so did my husband. I will definitely be making this cake again. It's so easy to make, and it's always a crowd-pleaser.
Here are some tips for making the perfect double chocolate cake:
- Make sure to use good quality ingredients. The chocolate you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the cake, so use the best chocolate you can find.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough, so mix it just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
Step-by-step
- Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Stir together sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
- Add eggs, milk, oil and vanilla. Mix until well blended.
- Lastly, stir in boiling water and mix well. Mixture will be thin compared to boxed cake batter.
- Prep desired cake pan with cooking spray (esp. if you use round cake pans).
- Pour batter into pan and cook for 30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
- For Frosting, melt butter and stir into powdered sugar, cocoa, milk and vanilla. If you want, you can slowly add in milk to get to desired consistency.
