Elyse's Chocolate Cake Recette

This intensely rich, dark chocolate cake is unbelievably easy to make – perfect even for baking novices! Inspired by a recipe shared with me by Elyse after I taught her cake decorating in Israel, this is my go-to chocolate cake. So simple, my husband (who struggles with microwaving a hot dog!) successfully baked it. It's the ideal base for any frosting or decoration; simply freeze it overnight for flawlessly smooth icing. A cheaper and equally delicious alternative to boxed mixes!

Comment préparer Elyse's Chocolate Cake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or line with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups granulated sugar, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder, 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda, and ¾ teaspoon salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: 1 cup buttermilk, ½ cup vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, and 1 cup boiling water.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once completely cool, freeze the cakes overnight for easier frosting.
Frost and decorate as desired.
