Provided by msippigrl

Number Of Ingredients 14

Chocolate Frosting:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 stick unsalted butter (1/2 cup), softened
1 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 extra large eggs, room temperature
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter or margarine, softened
1/2 cup cocoa powder
3 cups confectioners sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/3 cup milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. In a large mixing bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the softened butter, milk, and vanilla. Using a hand mixer, beat mixture for 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Add the eggs and beat for another 2 minutes. Divide the batter between the two prepared pans. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pans on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove cakes to rack to cool completely. Make the Frosting: Add all ingredients to a mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer, beat until spreading consistency, adding a dab more milk if needed. Makes about 2 cups frosting. Frost between the layers, over the top and on the sides of cake.

I'm not a big fan of yellow cake, but this one was really good. The chocolate frosting was the perfect touch.

This cake was a disappointment. It was dry and the frosting was too sweet.
