Here's what you need: flour, dutch processed cocoa powder, salt, baking soda, baking powder, stout, vanilla extract, espresso powder, butter, sugar, eggs, mayonnaise, dark chocolate, butter, vanilla extract, dutch processed cocoa powder, powdered sugar, milk, fresh fruit

Provided by Scott Loitsch

Categories     Bakery Goods

Time 1h20m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 ½ cups flour
1 cup dutch processed cocoa powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 ½ cups stout
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon espresso powder
1 cup butter
1 ½ cups sugar
3 eggs
½ cup mayonnaise
4 oz dark chocolate, chopped
1 ½ cups butter, softened
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
½ cup dutch processed cocoa powder
5 cups powdered sugar
5 tablespoons milk
fresh fruit, to decorate

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!

THE MOISTEST CHOCOLATE CAKE YOU'LL EVER MAKE



The Moistest Chocolate Cake You'll Ever Make image

This is no ordinary dry chocolate cake. It's so moist that it doesn't even need frosting and is even better and more moist the second day. Has a nice spongy texture but I can almost guarantee you won't have any leftovers. Plus it has no complicated ingredients and can be made all in one bowl. The recipe was passed down from my grandmother to my mom and was originally called Cheapcake because of it's lack of milk or eggs.

Tips:

  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for baking chocolate cake is 350°F (175°C).
  • Don't overbake the cake: Overbaking will make the cake dry. Check the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

The moistest chocolate cake is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. By following the tips above, you can make a chocolate cake that is moist, flavorful, and sure to impress your friends and family.
