If you feel like sharing a recipie girls or boys please feel free to join or comment or whatever hehehe !! This Recipie i got it from Martha Steward living hehe
Ok, Chocolate lovers here i go !!!
Hershey's Chocolate cake
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled, or vegetable oil, plus more for pans
3/4 cup Hershey’s Cocoa, plus more for pans
2 cups sugar
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk, room temperature
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup boiling water
Chocolate Frosting (recipe follows)
1. Place rack in center of oven, and preheat to 350°. Lightly butter two 9-inch round cake pans. Line with parchment paper, and dust sides with cocoa; tap out excess. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, combine 3/4 cup cocoa, sugar, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add 1/2 cup butter or oil, milk, eggs, and vanilla. Using a handheld electric mixer on medium speed or just mix everything by hand, beat for 2 minutes. Add boiling water, and beat to combine (batter will be thin). Divide batter evenly between prepared pans.
3. Bake until cake tester (tooth pick) inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in pans for 10 minutes. Run a paring knife around edge of cakes to loosen them from pans. Invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
4. Place one layer, top-side up, on a serving plate. Using an offset spatula, spread with 1 cup of Chocolate Frosting. Top with remaining layer, bottom-side up, and frost with remaining frosting.
chocolate frosting
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 1/3 cups Hershey’s Cocoa
6 cups confectioners’ sugar, sifted, more if needed
2/3 cup milk, more if needed
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1. In a medium saucepan, melt butter. Add cocoa, and beat with a handheld electric mixer to combine.
2. Alternately add confectioners’ sugar and milk, beating on medium speed until frosting reaches a spreading consistency. Add vanilla, and beat to combine. Add more milk or sugar as needed to achieve desired consistency.
(if you are not a big fan of frosting just make half of it and it would be totally fine because i always end up with tons of frosting)
Well i hope you try it, trust me you'll like it
