Chocolate Fudge Cake With Angel Frosting Recipes

CHOCOLATE FUDGE CAKE WITH FUDGE FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) then grease and flour your baking pans (or spray with bake easy). Use either 2 9" rounds, 2 8" x 2" deep rounds, or a 9 x 13 baking pan.
• In a large mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, sugar, corn starch, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk the dry ingredients together until all of the cocoa powder is evenly distributed throughout the flour mixture.
• Add the eggs, coconut oil, vanilla extract and water, then stir to combine. Mix until all of the flour is incorporated and the batter is smooth. Transfer the batter into your prepared cake pans and divide evenly between each round.
• Bake your 9 inch cake rounds or a 9 x 13 cake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30-32 minutes, and your 8 inch deep cake pans for 35-38 minutes. Your cakes are done when the tops are springy to the touch and an inserted tooth pick comes out clean.
• Remove your cakes pans from the oven and allow the cake rounds to cool for 15-20 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
• In a medium mixing bowl, add your 12 ounces of chocolate chips. Heat in the microwave in 30 second increments until fully melted. Stir in the butter (sliced in tablespoon sized butter pats) until melted, then add the can of sweetened condensed milk. Stir an incorporate into the melted chocolate until smooth.
• Once your cake rounds are cooled, level off the layers by slicing off any rounded portion on the top of the cake. Place onto a cake round to work, or any plate that you will be serving your cake on.
• Spread your frosting between layers in an even layer that is not too thick (about 1/4 inch) and then add the next layer. Repeat for a filling layer, or begin to frost your entire cake by covering the top of the cake and working to spread the frosting down until the entire cake is covered.
• * If you baked in a 9 x 13 cake pan, you can simply frost your entire cake once the cake is cooled completely in the pan. ** For a final touch (that looks so much better!) grate some chocolate over the cake.

THE BEST CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH FUDGE FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F (177°C). Prepare four 8-inch round cake pans with parchment rounds, and grease the sides. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, sift flour, cocoa, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Whisk to combine, set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed until pale and fluffy, 4-5 minutes. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl.
• Lower the speed to medium-low and add eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition until just combined. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl.
• In a small bowl, combine the vanilla and instant coffee granules. Add the sour cream to the batter along with the vanilla coffee mixture and beat on medium speed until combined.
• Alternately add dry ingredients in thirds and buttermilk in 2 additions to the batter, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat each addition just until combined. Divide batter equally between the cake pans, a little over 2 cups per pan.
• Bake two layers at a time for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and cake springs back when lightly touched.
• Remove cakes from oven and allow to cool in pans for about 10 minutes, then turn onto cooling racks to cool completely before frosting. Or at this point, you can wrap all the cake layers tightly in plastic wrap and freeze or refrigerate until ready to assemble.
• Put chocolate in a heat-safe bowl and heat in the microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring after each interval until chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Set aside to cool.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl with a hand-held mixer, beat the butter on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 5-6 minutes. \
• Turn the mixer to low, and gradually add the powdered sugar one cup at a time, along with the cocoa powders.
• Once incorporated, add hot water, sour cream, vanilla and salt and beat until combined. Pour in cooled melted chocolate and mix on low to combine.
• Once the chocolate is combined, increase mixer speed to high and whip until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
• Once cake layers are completely cooled, place one layer on a turntable. Using an offset spatula, spread about 1 cup of the fudge frosting on top. Repeat with all layers, placing the final layer upside down.
• Frost the entire cake in a thick layer of fudge frosting. Use the back of a spoon to create swirls in the frosting. Top with mini chocolate chips of fresh fruit. Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE FUDGE CAKE WITH ANGEL FROSTING

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/fan 140C/gas 4 and grease and line a deep, 20cm round cake tin. Whizz the chocolate in a food processor until crumbs. Tip the flour, sugar, cocoa, oil, 150ml soured cream, eggs, vanilla and 150ml water into the largest mixing bowl you have. Whisk with an electric whisk until smooth, then quickly stir in 150g of your whizzed-up chocolate bits. Scrape into a tin, and bake on the middle shelf for 1 hr 20-1 hr 30 mins, or until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. Cool in the tin.
• While the cake is baking, make the icing. Combine remaining chocolate bits and soured cream with 2 tbsp soft brown sugar in a small saucepan and heat, stirring, until the chocolate is melted and you have a smooth icing. Leave to cool.
• When the cake is cool, slice it into 3 even layers. Spread 2 layers with chocolate icing.
• To make the angel frosting, put the sugar, vanilla and liquid glucose in a pan with 125ml water. Bring to the boil and cook just until the sugar has melted and the syrup turns clear. Take off the heat. Meanwhile, beat the egg whites until stiff, then continue beating, gradually pouring in the hot sugar syrup in a steady stream, until the mixture is fluffy and thick enough to spread - this might take a few mins as the mixture cools. Beat in the icing sugar. Work quickly and spread a tiny bit over each chocolate-covered layer. Assemble cake and swirl remaining frosting over entire cake.
