Chocolate Fudge Cake
Ingredients:
For the Cake:
– 1 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 cups granulated sugar
– cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 1 teaspoons baking powder
– 1 teaspoons baking soda
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup whole milk
– cup vegetable oil
– 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
– 1 cup boiling water
For the Chocolate Fudge Frosting:
– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 3 cups powdered sugar
– 1/3 cup whole milk
– 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350F 175C. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or line with parchment paper.
2. Make the Cake Batter: In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
3. Add Boiling Water: Gradually stir in the boiling water, mixing until the batter is smooth and slightly thin.
4. Bake the Cake: Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
5. Make the Chocolate Fudge Frosting: In a medium bowl, beat the softened butter until smooth. Gradually sift in the cocoa powder and powdered sugar, alternating with the milk, and beat until creamy. Stir in the vanilla extract.
6. Assemble the Cake: Once the cakes have completely cooled, spread a layer of frosting on top of one cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake with the remaining frosting.
7. Serve: Slice and enjoy this decadent, rich chocolate fudge cake with family and friends!
