How to Make Easiest Best Chocolate Cake W Heavenly Chocolate Frosting

  1. **Cake Batter:** In a blender, combine 2 large eggs and blend for a few seconds.
  2. With the blender running, add 1 cup all-purpose flour, ¾ cup granulated sugar, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 cup milk. Blend for 30 seconds until smooth.
  3. Grease and flour two 10-inch round cake pans with removable bottoms.
  4. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
  5. Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. **Whipped Cream Filling:** In a chilled bowl, beat ¾ cup heavy cream with 1 tablespoon granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  8. **Chocolate Frosting:** In a blender, combine 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  9. In a saucepan, heat ¼ cup unsalted butter and ¼ cup heavy cream over medium heat until the butter is melted and the mixture comes to a simmer.
  10. Pour the hot butter and cream mixture into the blender with the chocolate chips.
  11. Blend for 30 seconds, or until the frosting is smooth and the chocolate is completely melted.
  12. Let the frosting cool slightly before frosting the cake.
  13. **Assemble the Cake:** Once the cakes are completely cool, spread a layer of whipped cream on top of one cake layer. Carefully place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake with the chocolate frosting.
  14. Serve and enjoy! This cake serves 8.
