Devil’s Fudge Cake
Ingredients:
– 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
– 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 2 teaspoons baking soda
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 2 eggs
– 1 cup buttermilk
– 1/2 cup vegetable oil
– 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
– 1 cup hot coffee
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans and set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until the batter is smooth and well incorporated.
5. Carefully pour in the hot coffee and stir until the batter is thin. Don’t worry, this is normal, and the cake will bake perfectly.
6. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Tap them gently on the countertop to remove any air bubbles.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
8. Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. While the cakes are cooling, you can prepare the fudge frosting.
Fudge Frosting Ingredients:
– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 5 cups powdered sugar
– 2/3 cup milk
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fudge Frosting Instructions:
1. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter until smooth and creamy.
2. Gradually add the cocoa powder and powdered sugar, alternating with the milk, until the frosting reaches a spreadable consistency.
3. Mix in the vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Once the cakes have completely cooled, place one layer on a serving plate and spread a generous amount of frosting on top.
5. Carefully place the second layer on top and frost the entire cake with the remaining frosting, covering the sides and top evenly.
6. For an extra touch, you can decorate the cake with chocolate shavings, sprinkles, or fresh berries.
