TOO MUCH CHOCOLATE CAKE
I am posting this for safekeeping as it is our family's favorite cake recipe. It is very similar to a few others here on Zaar but IMO it's the best! :) The mini chips don't sink to the bottom, but regular chips will do just as well. I prefer to bake this as cupcakes as opposed to a bundt cake. Fantastic with vanilla buttercream frosting or just a dusting of powdered sugar. Edited to add: Thanks, Yooper and Ronnie for remiding me where I found this! I used to copy recipes from online onto index cards for my recipe box (before I found Zaar). So much for my "safekeeping" theory. lol

Tips for Baking the Perfect Chocolate Cake:
- Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the cake will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- Butter and eggs should be at room temperature. This will help them to blend together more smoothly and create a lighter, fluffier cake.
- 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 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Don't overbake the cake. Overbaking can make the cake dry and crumbly. Check the cake for doneness with a toothpick. When the toothpick comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, the cake is done.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
Conclusion:
Chocolate cake is a classic dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following these tips, you can bake a chocolate cake that is moist, fluffy, and delicious. So next time you're craving a chocolate fix, give one of these recipes a try.
