Chocolate Cake

Everybody in the family loves cake, especially when it is homemade, and has a fantastic filling!
Food Facts: Homemade cake is always yummy, when you follow the steps the right way. Store-bought cake always contains too much sugar and cream, making it unhealthy and on top of that, the amount of cream put onto one cake makes the cake inedible. Everybody loves homemade cake, and it is more enjoyable when it is made the perfect way! So follow these steps!!

What You'll Need For The Cake

• 1 ¾ cups of all- purpose flour

• One teaspoon of baking soda

• 2/4 teaspoon of fine salt

• ¾ cup of Dutch-process cocoa powder (other types of chocolate powder are fine, too)

• ⅔ cup of boiling water

• ⅔ cup of whole milk (room temperature)

• Twelve tablespoons of unsalted butter

• Two cups of granulated sugar (other types of sugar is fine)

• Two teaspoons of vanilla essence

• Three large eggs (white eggs)

MATERIALS FOR THE FILLING

• One cup of heavy cream

• Hershey’s Syrup

• One- two teaspoons of sugar (as per your taste)

Making yummy cake like this also needs caution, like when you are placing the cake inside the oven, be careful that your bare hand does not the metal part of the oven. (Which will be extremely hot.) Also when you are mixing the ingredients, be sure to mix them without spilling anything, that can cause a sticky mess. Another caution is to work on a flat surface, so no materials are knocked over.

Steps For The Chocolate Cake

1. 1. First, preheat the oven to a temperature of 350 degrees fahrenheit.

1. 2. Second, whisk the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking soda together in a large bowl.Mix until the materials are purified.

1. 3. Third, in another bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, milk, and boiling water, then keep it aside.

1. 4. Fourth, place the measured butter in a large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and beat the butter on a medium-high speed.(for safety) Keep mixing the butter until it’s fluffy and light in color. While you are mixing the butter, also add the granulated sugar and the vanilla essence.

1. 5. Fifth, add a half of your flour mixture into the stand mixer and stir the mix until it’s all incorporated. Then do the same for the cocoa mix. Add a half of the cocoa mix and stir that until everything is purified. Continue doing this with the rest of the cocoa and flour mix.

1. 6. Sixth, once you have prepared the batter, take an oven bowl, apply flour to its sides- it does not get sticky after baking it. Pour the batter in the bowl and keep the plate in the preheated oven. Bake for 30 minutes.

1. 7. After baking, make sure that the inside is also dry. To make sure, insert a toothpick in the cake. If the result is slightly crummy, your cake is ready! ( If not, bake for 5-10 more minutes.)

1. 8.  Once it’s done, let the cake cool for 20 minutes. Then, cut the cake out of the plate and let it cool for 30-45 minutes. Meanwhile, make the chocolate filling.

STEPS FOR THE FILLING

1. First, take the heavy cream keep the measured amount in the stand mixer. Mix for 3-6 minutes, until it’s thick and creamy.

2. When you are mixing, add the amount of Hershey’s Syrup you need and the sugar you need. Make sure all the materials are properly mixed, in order to taste yummy.

3. Keep mixing, and you should have a chocolaty whipped cream.

4. Next, carefully cut half of the cake off the top, and carefully, place it in a safe place. Keep some of the whipped cream on cut area, and place the top of the cake back on the cream.
If you have cream still remaining, you can make a little design on your cake, for an important occasion, by, putting the cream in a plastic bag, sealing it, cutting the corner of the bag and making any design on the cake, you want!!

5. Fifth, gently place the cake in the refrigerator and eat it cold or warm!
