KILLER CHOCOLATE CAKE

Steps:

• Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch glass or metal cake pan with the 1 tablespoon of room temperature butter.
• Whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Combine the buttermilk and vanilla in a medium bowl or a 2-cup liquid measuring cup.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large bowl, if using a handheld mixer), cream the 1 cup of butter and the brown sugar on low speed until creamy and well combined. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until light and airy, about 2 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to medium-low and add the eggs one at a time, mixing well between each addition and scraping down the side and bottom of the bowl as needed. Once all 3 eggs are added, beat for 1 minute on medium speed to get the mixture nice and fluffy.
• Reduce the speed to medium-low and add the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk mixture in three batches, starting with the flour. Add the melted chocolate and mix on medium speed until well incorporated, stopping the mixer to scrape down the side and bottom of the bowl as needed.
• Use a rubber or offset spatula to scrape the batter into the prepared pan and even it out as much as possible. Bake until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean and the center of the cake resists light pressure, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool completely, at least 2 hours, before frosting.
• Make the frosting: Put the butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or in a medium bowl, if using a handheld mixer). Beat on medium-high speed until smooth. Turn off the mixer and sift the confectioners' sugar into the bowl and combine on low speed. Add the melted chocolate, soy sauce, and vanilla and beat on low speed until combined. Increase the mixer speed to medium-low and whip until glossy, 15 to 30 seconds.
• Use an offset spatula or butter knife to spread the frosting on top of the cooled cake. Cut into squares and serve.
• DO AHEAD: The cake will keep, loosely covered with plastic wrap in the refrigerator, for up to 3 days. Let it sit out at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes before slicing and serving.

KILLER FUDGE CAKE

Steps:

• TO MAKE THE CAKE: In the top of a double boiler, over hot water, melt 6 oz. of the butter with the 6 oz of the unsweetened chocolate. When this is melted, remove it from the heat and transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl to cool to room temperature. While the chocolate and butter are cooling, lightly butter the bottoms of two 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F When the chocolate is cool, add the eggs, sugar, salt and vanilla and whisk together until well combined. Stir in the flour and pour the batter into the prepared baking pans and bake for 35 minutes or until a toothpick, when inserted in the middle comes out clean. Remove the cakes from the oven and cool them in the pans for 30 minutes. With a knife, loosen the edges of each of the cakes from the pans and turn them out onto a cake rack to cool completely.
• TO MAKE THE ICING: While the cake is baking, prepare the icing. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, instant coffee and heavy cream. Bring this to a boil, and boil gently for 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the unsweetened chocolate. After the chocolate has melted, add the butter and vanilla and cool to room temperature.
• TO PUT THE CAKE TOGETHER: Set one of the cakes, top side up, on a plate and cover with a bit of the icing. Set the second layer upside down so the bottom is facing up and ice the top and sides. Pat the chopped nuts onto the sides of the cake, and center some in the middle of the top layer.
• Refrigerate the remaining icing until firm. Transfer the icing to a piping bag fitted with a rosette tip and pipe rosettes around the edges. Store the cake in the refrigerator, but bring it back to room temperature before serving.

OLD FASHIONED FUDGE CAKE

• Sift together into a large bowl the flour, sugar and baking soda. In a small bowl, beat egg slightly and combine with sour cream and vanilla. Stir into flour mixture. Pour in the cooled chocolate mixture. Beat at low speed for 5 minutes until completely combined and the consistency of heavy cream.
• Pour batter into prepared 9 inch tube pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.

KILLER CHOCOLATE CAKE

Steps:

• First of all, we need to make the base. Preheat the oven to 150C or 300F degrees.
• Melt the chocolate in the hot water bath. Brake the chocolate into smaller pieces, place into heatproof ball, add butter and place bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Make sure the ball does not touch the water.
• To the melted chocolate and butter mixture add sugar, coffee and hot water. Mix well and stir until sugar dissolves. Remove from hot water bath and let it cool down for about 15 minute.
• Next add milk to the chocolate mixture. Milk must be cold as it should also lower the temperature of the mixture.
• Using a hand mixer whisk in eggs one at a time.
• Add sieved flour, cocoa, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder, salt and mix well either with a wooden spoon or hand mixer until combined.
• In the end add vegetable oil and vanilla.
• With a small piece of butter grease 20cm loose bottom cake tin. It should be a deep one as well - approximately 10cm deep as the cake will rise twice in size.
• Line the tin with parchment paper. Spoon the mixture into the tin and bake for 2 HOURS.
• When base is ready remove it from the oven, let it cool down so you can handle. Carefully remove from the tin and let it cool down completely.
• Now you can start preparing the ganache by melting the chocolate in hot water bath same way as described above just without the butter.
• When chocolate is fully melted remove from hot water bath to cool down (approx. 10min) and add double cream. Mix well until fully combined and glossy.
• Next step is to make mascarpone cream. Whip the double cream with icing sugar and lemon juice. Add mascarpone and mix well.
• Cut the base into 3 equal layers and spread mascarpone cream on two of the layers. (reserve a little bit of cream for later) Stuck them on top of each other finishing up with a layer with no mascarpone cream. "plaster" the gaps with remaining mascarpone cream so it looks neat and tidy.
• Pour the ganache on top of the cake and spread it evenly.
• When I am covering the cakes with ganache (or any other liquid-ish glazing) I put it onto oven rack so when the glazing is dripping off the sides it goes straight through without flooding the sides and leaving cake looking untidy. Just make sure you put foil or baking tray under the oven rack to catch all the excess ganache without making too much of a mess.
• Decorate the cake with fruits berries and/or chocolate garnishes.

DEATH BY CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Place paper baking cup in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups.
• Make and bake cake mix as directed on box for cupcakes, using water, oil and eggs and adding vanilla. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely.
• Meanwhile, place bittersweet chocolate in heatproof bowl. In 1-quart saucepan, heat whipping cream until almost boiling. Pour over chocolate; let stand 5 minutes. Stir until chocolate is melted and ganache is smooth. Cool 30 minutes.
• Cut out small section from top center of each cupcake; reserve cutout pieces. Spoon 1 1/2 teaspoons ganache into each hole; replace removed cake pieces. Cool remaining ganache 1 hour. Beat with electric mixer on medium speed until spreadable. Spread or pipe onto cupcakes. Drizzle with chocolate topping.

COMMISSARY CHOCOLATE CHIP FUDGE CAKE (KILLER CAKE)

In a large bowl wisk together for 1 minute the eggs, sugar, salt, and vanilla. Whisk in the butter chocolate mixture. Stir in the flour and chocolate chips. Pour the batter into the preparred pans and bake for 30-35 minutes. Do not over bake, a cake tester should NOT come out clean. Cool on racks in the pans. Remove them from the pans as soon as cooled. If not using right away, wrap them up. Frosting: Combine sugar coffee and cream in a small but deep, heavy sauce pan. Stirring, bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer six minutes without stirring. Remove from the heat add the chopped chocolate and stir until it is melted and blended. Add the butter and vanilla. Whisk well. Chill until the mixture begins to thicken. If made the day before, bring the frosting back to room temperature and beat it until it is spreading consistency. Assembly: Put one cake layer bottom side up on a cake plate. Spread with one third of the frosting. Top with the second layer also bottom side up. Trim the circumfrence of the cake of excess crusty protrusions so it is smooth and can be frosted evenly. Pour all but one half of the frosting on top, spreading it over the top and on the sides. Refridgerate if not serving immediately but bring to room temperature before serving.
