How to Make Decadent Chocolate Cake W Raspberry Liqueur
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Position oven rack in the center.
- Cake: In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tsp baking soda, and 1 tsp salt. Set aside.
- In a stand mixer, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Melt 8 oz milk chocolate; let cool slightly. Add cooled chocolate and 1 tsp vanilla extract to the butter mixture; beat for 3 minutes.
- Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, scraping down the bowl after each addition.
- Beat for another 3 minutes.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with ½ cup cold water, mixing for 1 minute after each addition until smooth.
- Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. Line the bottoms with parchment paper.
- Divide batter evenly between prepared pans.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cakes cool in pans for 40 minutes.
- Invert cakes onto wire racks; remove parchment paper. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons Chambord.
- Icing: In a stand mixer, dissolve ½ cup granulated sugar in ¼ cup water at low speed.
- Add 4 oz dark chocolate (melted and cooled) and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Beat until combined.
- Gradually add 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, a tablespoon at a time, until fully incorporated.
