THE BEST CHOCOLATE CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Grease and line three 8-inch (20 cm) cake tins with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.
• In a large glass measuring cup, combine the stout, vanilla, and espresso powder. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until it is light and fluffy, about 5 minutes, scraping down the sides occasionally to ensure all the ingredients are being evenly creamed together.
• Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
• Add the mayonnaise and beat until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
• Preheat oven to 325˚F (160˚C).
• Alternate adding the prepared dry and wet ingredients to the batter. Starting with about ⅓ of the dry ingredients, beat until incorporated. Then add ⅓ of the liquid ingredients, mixing until the batter comes together. Continue until all the wet and dry ingredients have been incorporated.
• Using a rubber scraper, fold the dark chocolate chunks into the batter.
• Distribute the batter evenly between the 3 prepared cake tins.
• Bake for about 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
• Place the cakes on a cooling rack and leave to cool for about 10-15 minutes, until the outside of the pan is cool enough to touch.
• Once the cakes have cooled, loosen the edges using a butter knife. Then place a large plate over the tin and invert to release the cake from the pan. Remove the parchment paper from the bottom of the cake and slide the cake back onto the cooling rack to cool completely. Repeat for the remaining two layers.
• While your cakes are cooling, prepare the buttercream.
• In a large bowl, beat together the butter and vanilla.
• Gradually add in the cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and milk, continuously beating until all the ingredients have been incorporated and the frosting is light and fluffy.
• Frost and decorate to your liking.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!

YUMMY CHOCOLATE CAKE!

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 180C/fan - 200C/electric - gas 6
• Begin by weighing your eggs. Whatever weight this comes to, measure the same in butter and sugar.
• Add this to a cake mixer and mix until lighter in colour and texture. (if you do not have a mixer then use a hand mixer or just muscle power!)
• Now, if you were making a regular sponge cake, you would weigh the same amount of self raising flour as your initial egg weight, however as we are making a chocolate cake, only add 3/4 of this weight in flour and make up the rest in cocoa powder.
• sieve the flour/cocoa mix into a bowl.
• turn the mixer containing the butter and sugar mix to the lowest speed and gradually and alternately add the eggs and cocoa/flour until thoroughly combined.
• give the mix one last rapid mix for a few seconds and then add 2 tbsp of boiling water and mix this in with a metal spoon.
• add the cake batter to your greased and floured cake tin (or add spoonfuls to individual cupcake cases if you'd prefer!)
• and place in the middle of the oven for 50 - 60 mins until firm and springy to the touch.
• ---to check if it has cooked, insert a knife into the centre of the cake, if it comes out clean, youre good to go!---
• (for cupcakes, cook for about 15-20 mins and check with the same knife test!)
• CAUTION, DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN IN THE FIRST 30 MINS OF THE COOKING TIME or your cake will sink!
• take out of the oven and leave to cool in the tin for a while and turn onto a cooling rack whenever you feel confident to!
• to make the butter icing you add half butter to icing sugar and enough cocoa powder to give a rich luxurious taste! I use about 225g icing sugar to 110g butter but you can make as much as you like! (this mixture is very forgiving so dont worry about accuracy. and the extra will keep in the fridge!
• I add this icing to the middle and top of the cake but you can ice the cake however you want to!
• enjoy!
