Triple Chocolate Cake Recipe

This is one of the most amazing chocolate cake that is so moist and so good. 

STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE 

Start off by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit then butter your pan and then pour in some all-purpose flour or cocoa powder. Set the pan aside, you want to butter and dust three 9 inch cake pans. 

To put together the batter, in a large mixing bowl, add 3 cups of flour, 3 cus of sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking soda and salt. Give that a quick whisk to ci]ombine.

For the wet ingredients, pour in eggs, buttermilk, hot water and vegetable oil then mix that all together. You don’t want to over mix the batter, you really just looking to combine teh ingredients and make sure that there is no flour or cocoa powder left on the side. 

The easiest way to divide the batter among the pans is by using a measuring cup and just scoop it in. Bake the cakes in a 350 degrees oven for 30 to 35 minutes.

Make sure that you move the rack to the centre so that you are baking the cake in the very centre of the oven. This will ensure the evenest baking. 

Once they are done, remove from the oven and let them cool for about ten minutes. For the frosting, start with cream cheese in a bowl and add softened butter then use a hand mixer to whip that together. 

Once light and fluffy, add in cocoa powder, the type of cocoa powder that you use in this cake really matters use high-quality cocoa powder.

Mix that together then add in milk, the amount of milk you add really varies. Add 8 cups of powdered sugar one cup at a time and in the end, it should be a smooth frosting. 

Once the cake is cooled, place the first layer on a plate and spread with the frosting then add the next layer until you are done.
