Simple & Quick Chocolate Cake
Ingredients:
For the Cake:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 and 3/4 cups granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water
For the Chocolate Ganache (Optional):
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
Cooking Steps:
For the Cake:
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
Step 2: In a large bowl, sift together all-purpose flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 3: Add eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined.
Step 4: Gradually add boiling water to the batter, stirring continuously. The batter will be thin; this is normal.
Step 5: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
Step 6: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
For the Chocolate Ganache (Optional):
Step 7: If making ganache, heat heavy cream in a saucepan until it just starts to simmer. Remove from heat and add chopped chocolate. Let it sit for a few minutes, then stir until smooth.
For Assembly:
Step 8: Allow the cakes to cool completely. If using ganache, pour it over the cooled cake, letting it drip down the sides.
Step 9: Slice and enjoy the rich and decadent flavor of Classic Chocolate Cake.
Whether enjoyed on its own or with a luscious chocolate ganache, this Classic Chocolate Cake is a timeless dessert that never fails to delight.
