Octoberfest is chocolatefest for me. But I seemed to be having a hangover this November - here's another chocolate treat. This will be the last (for this year) promise! ;D
Black magic cake, moist chocolate cake, whatever you call it, it's a basic chocolate cake that spells M-O-I-S-T. (mo-west as we jokingly pronounce it.)
This is my dad's favorite. I know he's not suppose to eat chocolates, but he just can't resist this.
1 3/4c all purpose flour
1 3/4c brown sugar
3/4c cocoa powder
2tsp baking soda
1tsp baking powder
1tsp salt
2pcs egg
1c strong black coffee
(mix 2tsp instant coffee + 1c hot water)
1c buttermilk or sour milk
(mix 1tbsp vinegar + 1/2c evaporated milk + 1/2c hot water)
1/2c vegetable oil
1tsp vanilla
Preheat oven for 30 minutes at 350F.
1. Sift and whisk together dry ingredients.
2. Make a well*, add the eggs and other wet ingredients in the center.
3. Beat at medium speed for two minutes.
4. Pour batter into a greased & floured pan (13x9x2 or two 9-inch pan)
5. Bake for 35-40 mins.
You may top it with your choice of chocolate frosting, but for me, the cake itself is good enough.
*make a well, is a technique to avoid crumbling when mixing dry & wet ingredients together. First, in a bowl, make a hole (like a well) in the middle of the dry ingredients, add the wet ingredients in the well, then gently mix them together in the center until smooth and well blended.
