This cake is so good, no need to use an electric mixer for this it's all mixed by hand in a matter of minutes! This cake is so moist and so chocolaty. If you are a cinnamon lover add in 1 teaspoon. You will love the simplicity, texture and taste of this cake! Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups white sugar |
1 cup brown sugar |
2 cups flour |
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 cup butter, melted |
1/2 cup buttermilk |
1/2 cup vegetable oil or 1/2 cup canola oil |
1 cup water |
2 large eggs, slightly beaten |
2 teaspoons vanilla |
1 cup mini chocolate chip |
1 cup chopped nuts (optional) |
Directions:
1. Set oven to 350°.
2. Set oven rack to second-lowest position.
3. Butter a 13 x 9-inch baking pan.
4. In a large bowl sift together both sugars, flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon; set aside.
5. In another bowl mix/whisk together the melted butter, buttermilk, oil, water, eggs and vanilla; add to the dry ingredients; mix well to combine until you have a smooth batter (I use a large whisk for mixing).
6. Add in chocolate chips and nuts (if using).
7. Pour into prepared baking dish.
8. Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until cake tests done.
9. Cool completely before frosting.
10. **NOTE** if using nuts reduce amount of chocolate chips to 1/2 cup.
