How to Make Chocolate Cake Dripping With Chocolate Sauce

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, milk, and vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the cakes are cooling, prepare the chocolate sauce:
  9. In a medium saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, heavy cream, and butter.
  10. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is melted and the sauce is smooth.
  11. Once the cakes are completely cool, frost one layer with half of the chocolate sauce. Top with the second cake layer and drizzle the remaining chocolate sauce over the top.
  12. Serve and enjoy! This cake is best served at room temperature.
