Old Fashioned Chocolate Cake

Has a one of a kind flavor, and reminiscent of the kind of cake Grandma used to make.
If you used boxed cake mix, this will put an end to that!
It's very easy to make and likely you'll probably already have most ot the ingredients on hand.
The Glossy Chocolate Icing is rich and tasty. Enjoy!
The coffee is the key.

Инструкции

  1. Preheat oven to 350

  4. Combine the water, oil, vinegar, instant coffee, and vanilla in another mixing bowl.
  5. Add this wet mixture to the dry mixture--whisk until just combined, smooth--but don't over mix, and a lump or two is just fine. Over-mixing may make the cake a tad tough.
  6. Spray two cake pans (8 or 9 inch) with nonstick spray.
  7. Divide the cake batter between the two pans.
  8. Bake about 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Take the cakes out of the cake pans and let cool--dome side down so as to flatten them out a tad.
  10. While those aromatic lovely cakes are cooling;

  13. Stir in sugar, cocoa, & salt--the texture will be thick and grainy.
  14. In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, sour cream, and instant coffe and mix until smooth. (you might want to turn down the heat on the saucepan while you do this)
  15. Gradually add the cream mixture to the chocolate until blended and smooth.
  16. Cook until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is smooth and hot to the touch--about 6 to 8 minutes. Do not boil !
  17. Take the saucepan off the heat and stir in the vanilla.
  18. Let the icing cool at room temperature for about 2-3 hours.
  19. Now go on an ice and assemble those cakes!
