Ingredients
- 3/4 cup Unsalted Butter
- 2 cups Sugar
- 3 Large Eggs
- 3/4 cup Cocoa
- 1 1/2 cups Water
- 2 cups All Purpose Flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
- 1/3 teaspoon Baking Powder
Preparation
Step 1
Sift your flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into a bowl and whisk together. Set aside.
Boil some water. Pour your hot water onto your cocoa and whisk until your cocoa dissolves completely. Set aside to cool slightly.
Cream your butter and sugar at medium speed until light and fluffy, about 8-10 minutes.
Add your eggs to your sugar mixture, two at a time, and blend until incorporated. Scrape down the sides as needed.
Alternatively Add Dry Ingredients and Cocoa Mixtures
Add your dry ingredients alternatively with your warm cocoa mixture. Begin by adding dry, then alternate with wet.
Bake Cake
Pour your batter into your desired parchment lined pans. Always bake at 350 degrees according to the chart above, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely in their pans.
