This is the easiest chocolate cake recipe I have ever made! It is so good and uncomplicated that it can be altered to make many variations if you'd like! Hint: a quality, high-fat cocoa works best.This is from Martha Stewarts Everyday Food, June 2004 Issue . Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar |
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa |
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 large eggs |
1 cup low-fat buttermilk |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2/3 cup butter, melted |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350. 2. Butter a 9x13 inch baking pan. Line bottom of pan with parchment or wax paper; butter paper. 3. Whisk together dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. 4. Add remaining ingredients; with an electric mixer, beat on low speed until moist. Raise speed to medium; beat until smooth, about 3 minutes more. 5. Pour into prepared pan; bake until a toothpick inserted comes out clean with a few moist crumbs, 25 to 30 minutes. 6. Cool in pan for minutes; invert onto a wire rack. 7. Remove paper; reinvert to cool completely. 8. Top with frosting or dust with confectioners' sugar, if desired. |
