Moist Chocolate Cake Credits unknown @homemade_addict2 Ingredients For the cake 1¾ cups all-purpose flour ¾ cup cocoa powder 1½ cups sugar 1½ teaspoons baking powder 1½ teaspoons baking soda ½ teaspoon salt 2 eggs 1 cup milk ½ cup vegetable oil 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 cup hot water or hot coffee For the chocolate frosting 1 cup unsalted butter, softened 3½ cups powdered sugar ½ cup cocoa powder ¼ cup melted dark chocolate (optional but richer) 3–5 tablespoons milk or cream 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Instructions Preheat the oven to 170°C (350°F). Grease and line two round cake pans. In a large bowl, mix flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla, then mix until smooth. Slowly stir in the hot water or coffee. The batter will be thin—this is normal. Pour the batter evenly into prepared pans and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow cakes to cool completely before frosting. Chocolate Frosting Beat butter until creamy. Add powdered sugar and cocoa powder gradually. Mix in melted chocolate, vanilla, and milk until smooth and spreadable. Assemble Spread frosting between cake layers, then cover the top and sides generously. Slice and enjoy a super moist, rich chocolate cake 🍫 #halal_and_easy_cuisine #foodporn #Yummy ✨
