Notes
Making in different pans
Three 8” (20cm) pans: Cake will take several minutes longer to bake.
To make in two pans (instead of 3): Cakes will need to bake longer, about 30-35 minutes in 8” (20cm) round pans or slightly less time in 9” (23cm) pans.
Cocoa powder
Dark cocoa is recommended for best flavor, but you may substitute Dutch process or natural cocoa, instead.
Frosting
This recipe makes a lot of frosting so that you can sufficiently ice the cake and do the decorative border on top, as shown in photos. If you prefer less frosting, you can reduce this recipe in half. Some other good frostings for this cake include my:

chocolate cream cheese frosting: sugarspunrun.com/chocolate-cr...
white chocolate buttercream: • Top Your Cupcake With ...
Storing
Store at room temperature for up to 24 hours or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Cake tastes best at room temperature so I like to pull it out of the refrigerator at least 20 minutes before slicing and serving.

I cannot wait to try this cake!! I will be making your 2nd run at a Spice Cake next week and last week my grandson and I made your gourmet chocolate chip cookies. They rocked our world. He asked for the recipe. He is 12 and stated a cookbook with your cookie recipe

Thank you! I hope you love it! :)
I like to use a plate on top of bowls instead of foil or plastic just to avoid all of the trash/disposables. Looks like a great chocolate lovers cake! Thanks.

Another one for the farmers market :-) I will be selling slices of this cake this weekend. I had another request that I’m going to try to adapt from one of your classic recipes. Someone wants a pumpkin, oatmeal cream pie. I know how much you love making pumpkin recipes lol.
🤣🤣 that would be interesting
I love the out-takes and the recent sad zoom ins on the stand mixer
Thanks for this recipe it's beautiful ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊😊
You’re welcome! Enjoy! 😊

I use leftover coffee in all my chocolate baked recipes especially brownies mmmm so good. Lots of chocoholics watching this video I'm sure me being one of them...also just subscribed to your channel 👍🍰
Welcome to the channel! I hope you love everything! 😊
I always like your videos ❤❤❤
Thank you so much! 😊
Grabs a cold glass of milk and waits then drools all over your kitchen counter. Sorry. :P~~~
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I. Agree about milk and drool
That looks awesome 😋😋😋😋😋
Thank you!! 😊😊
Now your stand mixer isn't just lonely, it's jealous for you used the blue hand mixer instead of just the black mixer. Don't be surprised if it holds it's electric until it short circuits it's self and dies! Your soooo meeaan!!! I gotta try this cake though for chocolate cake is my favorite too, but i will be using my stand mixer with my spring form pans lol!
🤣🤣🤣 I hope you love the cake! 😊
I'm sure I will. But am going to do a couple of little tweeks to it. Instead of brown sugar use an additional tablespoon of molasses and the coffee idea, use a tsp of instant coffee crystals to it instead... Show your stand mixer some love. Get it a couple of new attachments and use them to make it feel better 😂😂😂
Thank you! It’s my birthday 🎉in two days - definitely will be making this cake!
Happy birthday!!! I hope you love the cake! 😊😊
Thanks sam
For this out class recipe of chocolate cake 😘
You're welcome! Enjoy! :)
Love your helper ❤ & this recipe looks like a Keeper 😋😋😋
Thank you so much! 😊
Team too much chocolate reporting for duty. I would search your recipes to see if you have a yellow/white cake that rivals the moistness of this one. That is a beautiful cake!! Great job.
I do have a yellow cake that's going to be close, but it's tough to get as moist as the chocolate. :) sugarspunrun.com/best-yellow-cake-recipe/
That looks amazing !!
Thank you! 😊😊
Thank you for perfect cake 🎂 ❤
Enjoy! :)
Oh yeah!!!!
If you put the flour, cocoa, and baking powder or soda hrough a sieve together you don't have to worry about lumps. For buttermilk I like to mix yogurt with milk. The recipe looks amazing! (Edit: don't try to put the sugar and salt through the sieve.)
Thanks for the tips! :)
Can you provide buttermilk recipe pls ? ❤
I so love your recipe tried it today for my daughter fist birthday 🎈 ❤ Theeeee Besstttt👌👌👌👌👌
i'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :) Happy birthday to your daughter! :)
Yum. I'm team coffee in my chocolate cakes so I'll go with that instead of the water. I'm also team butter!
Wow…yummy!
Thank you 😋
You have a great recipe. I want to try it
Thank you! I hope you love it! 😊
Wow, this is exactly what I was looking for. Will have to make this soon, maybe sometime this week. Definitely using the coffee. And wondering if it would be too much if I used half buttermilk and half chocolate milk. I guess I will have to make 2 cakes and try it both ways!
I'm not sure how the chocolate milk will work. It has added sugars, and cocoa so it could change things. It also won't have the same depth of flavor as the buttermilk. I hope you enjoy the cake though. :)
@@SugarSpunRun Yes, going to try your recipe as is and then the buttermilk/chocolate milk combo. Not sure when. I'm supposed to not be consuming so much sugar...lol!
Making this for our Christmas 🎄 party!!
He's adorable 🥰🥰 love this
😊 Thank you!
Wow. That's the most delectable chocolate cake ever. My brother used to put peanut butter in his cake batter, but not enough to tell there was peanut butter in it. Made it moist. I notice you use brown sugar like I do. It's much more hearty and flavorful than regular white sugar. It really does make a difference. Wonderful recipe.
Thank you so much! 😊
@@SugarSpunRunhas
Thank the chocolate cake Sosa
Looks delicious
Thank you! 😊
My grandaughter always said sprinkles are important😊this cake looks amazing.
Sounds like she and Luke could be great friends! 🤣 I hope you love the cake! :)
this is very delicious cake.
It is soooo good! :)
I made this cake yesterday & it was really good. 😊
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
I love the layer and the ginache in the middle of the cake
This looks absolutely drool-worthy!
It's so good! :)
Oh snap! I think this is the only chocolate cake I will need for the rest of my life! Yikes! I’m in trouble. 👍👍😘
You are going to love it! 😊
Waiting on your cookbook. 😊
I’m working on it. It’s taking longer than expected though.
Amazing 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Thank you so much 😀
Your welcome Good morning
I can not wait to make this 🤩🤩
I hope you love it! :)
@@SugarSpunRun I’m sure we will! There is no recipe that I’ve made from you that we can say we really didn’t like it!
I am a professional cake decorator and air bubbles happens to the best of us. And your swirls were very nice. That is a professional opinion.
I made it for my sins 16 birthday . It was so good. I did put some blue bonette in it because I didn't have a lot of butter .
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
Mm mm mm just love it how you are making a chocolate cake
Thank you so much! :)
@@SugarSpunRun you're welcome
This is up in my alley 😅
Enjoy! 😊
For the frosting can I use cocoa powder instead of melted chocolate? I can’t seem to melt chocolate without it seizing (and I saw your tutorial on how to melt chocolate, but there’s no microwave at my apartment, so I can’t use that method, unfortunately, I have to use the stove to melt it)
Love chocolate cake
Amazing cake!!! Can this cake be covered with fondant?
That should work. 😊
YOU'RE SO TALENTED, THE CAKE LOOKS DELICIOUS
Thank you so much! :)
I made this and we ate it cold. It was so good!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! 😊
This looks great as always, Sam. You must have at least two hand mixers and two stand mixers 😂
You can never have enough tools right?! :)
What is the purple spatula? I have a maroon wilton one that looks like it but I can no longer find it to buy a replacement. It is my favorite.
Here's the affiliate link to the one I got from Amazon. :) amzn.to/3QFgZbU
@SugarSpunRun, this looks amazing! Due to anaphylactic allergy to eggs & gluten I may have to use a GF/vegan fudge cake recipe I know works but will use your chocolate butter cream & ganache recipe - unless you think substituting GF flour & "No Egg" replacer could work for the cake? I am making it for a dear friends birthday. Everything I cook has to be special diet so my daughter & I can join in. I'd appreciate your thoughts 😉😋
I haven't tried using GF flour and an egg replacer so it's just too hard for me to tell. :( If you do try it I would love to know how it turns out. It's always helpful for others if I have feedback on those substitutions. :)
My hubby’s next Birthday cake! ❤🎉🍫
He's going to love it! :)
I’m defo going to make this for my sons birthdays. Can it be made as two layer cake ?
It can be made in either 2 8" or 2 9" pans. For 8 inch pans they will take 30-35 minutes to bake and a few minutes less for 9". :)
Looks delicious 💗 how much batter would I need to make for a 9x13 pan? Thanks
They are actually thinner layers of cake so this recipe should fit in a 9 x 13. :)
The cake is so good baked it today 😊😊
That poor stand mixer😂😂 abiding its time to shine😄
🤣
Do you have a double chocolate cookie with oreos crumbs in the mix plus Oreo and white choco chips??? Can you pls make one 🤤🤤🤤
I have a double chocolate cookie but if you put oreos in them I would worry they may spread too much. sugarspunrun.com/double-chocolate-chip-cookies/
This cake look yummy and delicious like a rainbow day 🌈 of new jersey sunshines 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅🐅
Enjoy! 😊
I laugh every time you focus in on the stand mixer😂😂😂😂 it’s feeling some type of way😂😂😂😂. I love your channel. You recipes are always simple enough for a non baker to make🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you so much! :)
Just curious if the batter is too thin to add some chocolate chips? Loving your videos!
I haven't tried it, but I think they would probably sink.
I thought so. Thanks!
OMG you had me at chocolate 😍😍
You're going to love this one! :)
@@SugarSpunRun thanks for the reply ❤️
Beautiful cake! This is my favorite kind of cake. The cake that has "too much chocolate" No such thing is what I say! :P
I hope you love it! :)
If I want to use your chocolate cream cheese frosting would I need to make a double batch?
I would, just to make sure you have enough. You might have a little left over, but better too much than not enough.
This cake is going to be incredible with that frosting, yum!
Sam is making butter and buttermilk great again. I'm watching this at the beginning of a 14-hour work shift with no access to a kitchen. WHAT WAS I THINKING?! 😋🍰
🤣 Oh no! I guess you have plans for when you get home. 😉
Aww… Luke’s agreeable - not too much chocolate. I concur:)
No such thing as too much chocolate! :)
Sam this one made my day! Chocolate is my kryptonite!! Btw, all leftover ganache/frosting belongs to Luke! Just so you know..
🤣🤣🤣 he certainly thinks so!
Please could you make the bakery. Style chocolate chip muffins, instead of 6 cupcakes , could you make 12 cupcakes please
Sure thing. Just double the recipe. 😊
Can I use regular milk?
I would not recommend it but I do have a buttermilk substitute you can use. 😊 sugarspunrun.com/easy-buttermilk-substitute/
The buttermilk I get in stores has a much lower fat content than mock buttermilk made with whole-fat milk. I prefer the mock buttermilk for that reason.
They. Baby. Is. Such. Cute. Little
Baby
WOW CHOCOLATE CAKE AND STRAWBERRY CAKE OK LEMON JUICE AND B25 OK
This seems like a great cake for mint chocolate Oreo cake except I am using mint ganache decorated with mint Oreos.
That sounds delicious! Let me know how it goes! :)
Great recipe!
You might want to hide your Hand Mixers because I have a bad feeling that jealous Stand Mixer might become (mother from “Psycho”) and come after them! 😂
🤣🤣
Can i replace brown sugar with white ?
You will lose some moisture and flavor, but it should still turn out.
Thanks
Hi can I make this eggless pls suggest
Unfortunately I haven't tried making it eggless so I can't say for sure how to do it or how it would work. :(
@@SugarSpunRun thank you so much for your prompt reply ❤️
