Best Chocolate Cake Ever-Trust Me! Best Chocolate Cake Ever-Trust Me!
I woke up with a crave attack and was in need of a moist chocolate cake. Up until then, I had never made one from scratch before so I started scouring the Internet and I came across this one. I tweaked it just a bit (instead of espresso powder, I used instant coffee and I added it to the water to dissolve). You will never need another chocolate cake recipe after trying this one. My husband is not a chocolate cake fan but he loves this one! wilce7713 -

Easy Chocolate Cake Easy Chocolate Cake
I've been making this chocolate cake for a while now and it's become our family favorite. If you wish to reduce its sweetness, try making it with dark chocolate. You can also combine the chocolate and heavy cream in a bowl and microwave to melt.Step 3: You can also use a whisk.Step 3: Take care not to whip too much as the chocolate cream will be too stiff. I used a chocolate bar, but use baking chocolate (couverture) for a glossy finish. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221 cookpad.japan -

Rich Chocolate Cake Rich Chocolate Cake
It's a cake with a low flour composition that is baked at low temperature, so it isn't a cake that can maintain swelling, but once swelled, many fine bubbles remain even after the cake shrinks. By doing this, this chocolate cake becomes light while having rich texture. Fumie's Recipe -
