Zubereitung von Devil's Chocolate Food Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the red food coloring (if using).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk and coffee, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting: In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (double boiler), melt the dark chocolate and butter, stirring occasionally until smooth.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly, stirring occasionally, until spreadable.
- Once the cake is completely cool, frost it with the chocolate frosting.
