Categories     Desserts

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
2 cups granulated sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ½ cups sour cream
2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
1 ½ cups sour cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 pinch kosher salt
2 ¼ cups powdered sugar
⅔ cup cocoa powder

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Make the cake: Grease and line 2 8-inch (22 cm) round cake pans with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
  • In a separate large bowl, cream the butter and sugar with an electric hand mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and beat until fully incorporated.
  • Add the vanilla and sour cream and stir with a rubber spatula until starting to incorporate, then beat with the hand mixer until fully combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating between each addition until just combined.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cake comes out clean. Let cakes cool for 10 minutes in the pans, then invert onto a wire rack and let cool completely.
  • Make the frosting: Add the butter, sour cream, vanilla, and salt to a large bowl. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until well combined. Sift in the powdered sugar and cocoa powder and beat until well incorporated and the frosting is smooth.
  • Place 1 layer of cake on a cake stand or serving platter lined with strips of parchment paper (for easy removal). Spread ¾ cup frosting evenly over the cake. Place the other cake layer on top and use the rest of the frosting to frost the top and sides of the cake.
  • Slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!

BASIC CHOCOLATE CAKE



Basic Chocolate Cake image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h

Yield two 9-inch cakes

Number Of Ingredients 11

Cooking spray
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (natural or Dutch process)
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs, at room temperature
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat two 9-inch-round cake pans with cooking spray and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
  • Whisk the cocoa powder and 1 1/2 cups boiling water in a medium bowl until smooth; set aside. Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl until combined. Add the eggs, vegetable oil, sour cream and vanilla and beat with a mixer on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the cocoa mixture in a steady stream until just combined, then finish mixing with a rubber spatula. (The batter will be thin.)
  • Divide the batter between the prepared pans and tap the pans against the counter to help the batter settle. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Transfer to racks and let cool 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edge of the pans and turn the cakes out onto the racks to cool completely. Remove the parchment. Trim the tops of the cakes with a long serrated knife to make them level, if desired.

CHOCOLATE SWISS ROLL CAKE (REGULAR & MINI)



Chocolate Swiss Roll Cake (Regular & Mini) image

Rich and totally irresistible, this chocolate cake roll is for chocolate lovers everywhere. Follow this carefully explained step-by-step recipe and the video tutorial above for success.

Provided by Sally

Categories     Dessert

Time 3h40m

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 large eggs, separated
2/3 cup (135g) granulated sugar, divided
1 Tablespoon (15ml) strong brewed coffee *or* 1 teaspoon espresso powder
1/4 cup (60g) unsalted butter, melted (see note)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup (63g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
3 Tablespoons natural unsweetened cocoa powder, plus 2 Tablespoons (10g) for rolling*
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup (240ml) cold heavy cream or heavy whipping cream
3 Tablespoons (38g) granulated sugar or confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
optional: 2 Tablespoons marshmallow creme ("Fluff")
1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream or heavy whipping cream
one 4 ounce bar (113g) semi-sweet chocolate, finely chopped
optional for glossy shine: 1 teaspoon light corn syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Spray a 12×17 inch baking pan with nonstick spray or grease with butter, so the parchment paper sticks. Then line it with parchment paper so the cake seamlessly releases. Spray or grease the parchment paper too. We want an extremely nonstick surface for this cake roll.
  • Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment, beat the egg whites and 1/3 cup (67g) granulated sugar together in a medium bowl on high speed for 5 minutes or until stiff peaks form. Set aside. In another bowl, beat the egg yolks, remaining sugar, and vanilla extract together until pale and creamy, about 2 minutes.
  • Sift the flour, 3 Tablespoons cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt together into a large bowl bowl. Pour the melted butter, coffee, and egg yolk mixture over the dry ingredients. Beat everything together on medium speed until completely combined. Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, gently fold in the egg whites until completely combined. Avoid over-mixing and deflating those whites. Batter will be very light.
  • Spread batter evenly into prepared pan. It will be a very thin layer. Shimmy the pan on the counter to smooth out the top. Bake for 10 minutes or until the top of the cake gently springs back when touched with your finger. Do NOT over-bake.
  • As the cake bakes, place a piece of parchment paper (larger than the cake) or a thin kitchen/tea towel flat on the counter. (Note: I find a kitchen towel is better to help prevent cracking.) Using a fine mesh sieve, dust parchment/towel with 2 Tablespoons of cocoa powder. Once the cake comes out of the oven, quickly run a knife around the edges to loosen it. Immediately invert it onto the parchment/towel. Peel off the parchment paper that was on the bottom of the cake as it baked. Starting with the narrow end, begin tightly rolling the hot cake up with the parchment/towel. Do this slowly and gently. The cake will be warm. Allow the cake to cool completely rolled up in the parchment/towel. Feel free to place it in the refrigerator to speed it up, about 3 hours and up to 1 day. (Note that you must bring it back to room temperature before unrolling, so make sure you set aside enough time.)
  • Bring cake to room temperature if it was in the refrigerator. The cake is prone to cracking if unrolled while cold.
  • Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract on medium-high speed until medium to stiff peaks form, about 2-3 minutes. Then beat in the marshmallow creme, if using.
  • Slowly and gently unroll the cake. Spread whipped cream evenly on top, leaving about a 1/2 inch border around the cake. Gently roll the cake back up, without the parchment/towel this time. Place on a wire rack set on a baking sheet (to catch the extra ganache). Set aside on the counter or in the refrigerator as you prepare the ganache.
  • Place chopped chocolate and corn syrup, if using, in a medium bowl. Heat the cream in a small saucepan until it begins to gently simmer. (Do not let it come to a rapid boil- that's too hot.) Pour over chocolate, then let it sit for 2-3 minutes to gently soften the chocolate. Slowly stir until completely combined and chocolate has melted.
  • Pour ganache all over cake roll. Feel free to spoon up any dripped ganache and spoon over the cake again. Refrigerate for at least 30-60 minutes before slicing and serving.
  • Cover leftover cake and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

  • PREP: Preheat the oven to 350 F (177 C). Prepare your baking pan. This recipe will make 1- 9x13" (22 x 33 cm) sheet cake, 2- 9" or 8" (22 or 20 cm) round layer cakes, or about 24 cupcakes. If making a sheet cake or layer cakes, butter the tin well and then line with parchment paper if desired. Parchment is optional but will help the cake release more easily. If making cupcakes, line the tin with cupcake liners.
  • MIX DRY INGREDIENTS: In a large mixing bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  • MIX WET INGREDIENTS: In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla extract, milk, and vegetable oil. Do not mix in the hot coffee or water at this point, leave it on the side.
  • FINISH MIXING BATTER: Pour the wet ingredients (minus the coffee or hot water) into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Use a hand mixer or the paddle attachment on the stand mixer to start mixing the ingredients on medium/low speed. Gradually pour in the hot coffee or hot water while the mixer is running. The heat from the liquid will bloom the cocoa powder and make it taste more chocolatey. The cake will not taste like coffee.
