How to Make Valrhona Chocolate Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- Melt the Valrhona chocolate and butter together in a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in the melted chocolate mixture until evenly distributed.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 30-35 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 cooled, frost the cake layers with your favorite chocolate frosting and enjoy!
