Ingredients

For the cake:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 3 ounces cooking chocolate, melted
For the glaze:
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 ounces cooking chocolate, melted

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350° F. Grease and line a 9-inch round cake pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three batches, alternating with the buttermilk. Beat until just combined. Stir in the melted cooking chocolate. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before glazing. To make the glaze, heat the heavy cream, butter, vanilla, and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once the mixture is hot, stir in the melted cooking chocolate until smooth. Pour the glaze over the cooled cake and let set before serving.

Equipment

For this recipe you will need:

  • 9-inch round cake pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Electric mixer
  • Small saucepan
  • Toothpick

Notes

If you want to make this cake even more chocolaty, you can add some chopped cooking chocolate to the batter before baking. This cake can also be made in two 8-inch round pans. The baking time may need to be adjusted. The glaze will harden as it cools, so it's best to pour it on the cake right before serving.
