How to Make Extra Moist Chocolate Fudge Snack Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour an 8x8-inch baking dish.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 6 ounces (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups (180g) all-purpose flour, 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup (240ml) buttermilk, 1/2 cup (120ml) unsweetened applesauce, 1/4 cup (60ml) vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 large egg.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently fold in the melted chocolate mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup (170g) mini chocolate chips and 1/2 cup (60g) chopped nuts (optional).
- Pour batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter).
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before serving.
