The best chocolate cake recipe. Ever? There are plenty of claims for the best chocolate cake recipe.
I get that. But with one bite of this decadent, moist
chocolate cake with chocolate frosting, every single person around the table
commented that this was the best chocolate cake they’d ever tasted.
Here’s another great thing about this recipe. The cake batter really can be made in a bowl without the use of a heavy duty mixer.
Of course, that just makes things easier, but this is easily
a recipe my Grandmother would have enjoyed making in her tiny kitchen with a
whisk and a bowl. And I’m sure it would have turned out perfectly, too.
This is my favorite homemade chocolate cake recipe. With a super moist crumb and fudgy, yet light texture, this chocolate cake recipe will soon be your favorite too.
Top with chocolate buttercream and chocolate chips for 3x the chocolate flavor. You can also prepare this chocolate layer cake as a sheet cake, too. See recipe note.
The Best Chocolate Cake Recipe Ever
It was
great to hear that they thought the cake was just as good after their last bite
as they thought it was with their first. Here’s another great thing about this
recipe. The cake batter really can be made in a bowl without the use of a heavy
duty mixer. Of course, that just makes things easier, but this is easily a

I’m not going to kid you, this makes a very rich,
moist chocolate cake recipe. So if you are a faint of heart chocolate cake
person, this is not the cake for youBased on the Old Fashioned Hershey’s
recipe, I sort of went a bit heavy-handed with some changes testing cake after
cake until I got it just the way I wanted it, but the end result was oh so
worth it. The crumbs left on the plate gave that away.

soda, salt and espresso powder to a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer.
Whisk through to combine or, using your paddle attachment, stir through flour
mixture until combined well.
Mix in

flour mixture and mix together on medium speed until well combined. Reduce
speed and carefully add boiling water to the cake batter until well combined.
Bake. Distribute
cake batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes,
until a toothpick or cake tester inserted in the center of the chocolate cake
comes out clean.
Frost. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes, remove from the pan and cool completely. Frost with the best frost you like the most.
