This week I'm sharing my updated rich chocolate cake recipe! It's made up of velvety soft cake layers that are packed with chocolate flavor, which are paired with an indulgent chocolate fudge frosting. I’ve recently updated this recipe (April 2024), as some readers were having issues with the cake layers sinking in. I experimented with different ways to add a little more structure to the cake layers to help prevent this issue, and finally settled on an updated recipe that had additional structure, but still had the same great flavor and texture to the original.
I know there are many of you who LOVE the original version, so I have kept the original quantities in the notes section of the recipe card (towards the bottom of the blog post). I want to assure you though, that the updated version (in my opinion) is even better than the original, so don’t be afraid to give it a go 😀

Enjoy!
Hi 👋 I’m wondering, what kind of salt do you use? Iodized, sea salt, kosher, etc.
Yay you are finally doing the flavors or flavor that I love are like that's great and better
Hi, and salam..do you think I can make this into 2 tier cake
Hello Alhamdulillah, your videos and recipes are amazing.
I tend to make big cakes if I double the recipe how do I adjust the cooking time.
Please help .
Why not just trust the process and yourself first. And don't be disheartened by any mistakes. Mistakes made during baking are easily fixed with frosting etc. Goodluck. @@thecatsister3040
Honest to God, not only is she an absolute angel for sharing her recipes -- and for the amount of time, work, ingredients, money and knowledge that goes into this process....but her recipes are NO FAIL! They are fabulous every time. I've searched for a good vanilla cake recipe for years. YEARS. I have two that I like but once they cool, they aren't that perfect crumb, tender cake. So I tried MK's for the first time. 1000/10. KEEPER! Please protect this beautiful lady at all costs because she is an absolute life safer and blessing to all who bake! xoxox
Aww thank you so so much for your wonderful comment! So so happy to hear you loved the vanilla cake recipe :D my channel would be nothing without all you amazing people trying my recipes so THANK YOU! ❤️❤️
She's so sweet and will respond to your query. God Bless you swt@.
Hi. If you do not own a bakery, you should. We need more good bakeries like years ago and nice people who share like you. Your recipes are just awesome. You have a great day young lady and thank you.
Aww thank you so much for your wonderful message :D so so so happy so many of you are enjoying the recipes ❤️. No bakery yet, but who knows maybe in the future :D
@@CakesbyMKhi MK... I want to ask... can I change milk to buttermilk?
I made your cake today and followed everything exactly and oh My! The best chocolate cake ever. And I have made my share of chocolate cake recipes but this one takes "the cake".
Aww yay! So so happy to hear you enjoyed it :D I would be so so grateful if you can kindly leave a review on my blog (if you haven't already), it really helps my content out :D thank you so so much for trying the recipe :)
Mk using butter is the game changer. It is perfect in every way. Can't tell you this is the best chocolate cake. I have been making mine with little brown sugar, and it is truly a delightful chocolate cake for all chocolate cake lovers.
I have just baked this cake, reduced the sugar by 30% (we prefer less sweet cake). It turned out very well!!! It is the best chocolate cake i have bake so far, & it is so easy! Will definitely bake it over again & again. The cake itself is already a big HIT!
Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe! Love it! Greetings fr Malaysia ❤
Aww yay! :D So so happy to hear you all loved it and what an honor that it's the best chocolate cake you've baked so far! If you manage to find a spare minute I'd be so so grateful if you can kindly leave a review on my blog - it really helps my content out :D thank you so much again for trying the recipe and much love from NZ to Malaysia :)
Really enjoy your presentation and am trying the recipe now now! Thank you for so many cake recipe choices to view and follow. Subscribed to your channel and going to try every one! The explanations of troubleshooting etc to an oldie like me are invaluable. Thank you so much!
🤩
Ever since I started watching your videos i started baking the most delicious cakes thank you and God bless you
Thank you, MK! Your wonderful recipes and videos make my day!
I've been watching ur videos for a long time but I have never tried baking any but today I was craving a rich chocolate cake and I used your recipe and it was amazing. I really have to commend you ma'am. This is the softest, fudgiest and most intense chocolate cake I have ever tasted. Thank you so much for sharing ❤
Definitely this chocolate cake is THE BEST.
I made your original recipe last year and never made any other cake😍.
Now this recipe has become an inseparable part of our life,I can't thank you enough. ZazakAllah!
I've made this twice now, it's absolutely delicious, moist but thick. The second time i doubled the quantity for a party cake and it worked just as well.
Surprisingly had some leftover a few days later and still tasted perfect
Hi Mk, fantastic baking as always you never disappoint 😋
I just made this a couple of hours ago and it’s delicious! I nibbled a little bit to try it but I have gallstones so I can’t eat anything with too much fat. That rules out this cake sadly but I gave it to my sister. Her husband is going to LOVE this. Thank you, your videos are always so helpful and informative. You seem like such a nice genuine person and I am looking forward to trying more recipes 😊
I made this cake today nd it is very very delicious thank you so much dear looking forward to trying more of your cakes❤
Love the frosting
I started my cake business using your previous chocolate cake recepie its soo delicious and my customers like it very much thank you❤️🤲🏽🫂
I think that you are an amazing baker. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
One of the best chocolate cake receipe.thank you my dear sister
Your recipes are life changing!!! I made the carrot cake and the red velvet cake twice and they’re the best recipes ever!
Awww yay! So so happy to hear you loved them both :D if you manage to find a spare minute I'd be so so grateful if you can kindly leave a review on my blog - it really helps my content out :D thank you so much again for trying the recipe!
The chocolate cake looks just too good. Thanks for the recipe.
When I need a recepie, I look for MK, this is where I get the real deal. You are a blessing madam.
Looks delicious as always ❤
Thank you so much for your amazing pistachio cake recipe which I made for Eid
Thank you. Happy Eid MK
Just found your channel when I saw your less sweet buttercream video. Cannot wait to try this!
Yummy 😋 Thank you for sharing this recipe 🥰
HI MK, I would like to know if you had any recommendations on storing the cake? How long would it last in room temperature/ fridge? I have just one suggestion, is it possible if you can give us like recommendations on how to store the cake and how long it'll stay fresh in the fridge or on the counter after you give us a taste test? Thank you, kindly.😊
Thanks for today's recipe
We should apreciate her work
Thank you! I still can’t wait to make your Red Velvet Cake soon ❤❤
You are simply the best❤

@@CakesbyMK thank you so much dear for all your efforts, I can't thank enough
Ohhhh just looking so much tempting.....fudgy.....chocolaty.....wud luv to have it on Eid❤
❤This cake woman always baking perfect deceiving 🎂.
Just made this cake over the weekend. The icing is good and the flavor of the cake is good. However, my cake came out of my convection oven extremely dry. I cooked it at 38 min as instructed. I also used the same size pans (magic line brand) idk why it was so dry but I couldn't save it. I followed the directions and along with the video. Any suggestions? I'm willing to give it another try.
Another great recipe.
Need to try this recipe
Its so yummy i ll make it soon
In sha Allah
This weekend I am definitely attempting this....thank you
How’d it go?
I'm looking forward to making this and comparing it to the original. I'm really interested in the frosting. It looks like a modified ganache.
🩷🩷🩷🥰🥰🥰I will definitely MAKE it!!Thank you beautiful lady 💃🏻💃🏻
Your channel is the number one I go to for any tutorials. You explain so well and also provide substitutes. I used to avoid recipes that had buttermilk until I saw your video on it, and honestly, im so grateful. Anytime I want to bake, I search 'cakes by MK'. They always turn out so well. In this recipe, did you use evaporated milk or just regular milk? I want to make this today.
Update: I ended up baking it. I used regular milk. It was so delicious. I usually don't bake the basics like vanilla, chocolate, etc . I feel they're so easy to fail as basic as they are. I'd rather bake red velvet or carrot cake. But I've used her vanilla recipe just a few days ago, and everyone loved it (they don't like vanilla cake), and today I made the chocolate. Chocolate is my least favourite flavor. But this one is the one guys. Best chocolate cake I've ever had. You're literally a blessing to the baking community, MK.
You're an excellent baker, I would be fat fat fat, if I made these delectable delicious desert cakes you make!! You eat with eyes first. Your completed cakes look so perfect you can see how good they are going to taste. Beautiful job!! You are the best! The BEST! 👏👍👌🌹🎉
Wow this looks so yummy
Hello i just discovered this video. Tomorrow is my birthday and no pastry/cake shop is open (every food place takes vacation after Eid festivities), so I’m making it on my own trying this recipe (scared but excited), wish me goodluck !
Happy Birthday!
@@HeronCoyote1234 thank you so much ! I wish youtube let me put the picture of my cake here, i added my own touch to the frosting : orange marmelade ! Decorating it was difficult as i forgot the frosting in the fridge for more than 2 hours, but the cake was delicious!
Lovely recipe😍
Hello Mk I went ahead and borrowed ur recipe and turned out soo amazing my client went crazy over it. 🙌
I really should not be surprised because you are a very passionate and hard working youtuber-baker... you are almost into half a million subscribers😊 Well done n well deserved
Thank you so much!! :)
That fudge frosting looks decadent
Look sooo good
Ahh, I've been using your last chocolate cake recipe and it's was the best, as you've done this one now, i became speechless because this new chocolate cake recipe is just too amazing, I don't even need to try it out yet because it's just too beautifully awesome masha Allah

Hello MK! Thank you for sharing all of your tips and recipes. Truly a gifted individual. Here in the states we have what’s called a yellow cake basically vanilla cake but with extra egg yolks. Not sure if you have it in New Zealand but do you plan on doing any yellow cake recipes?
This is insane. I baked it and everyone wanted to award me an Oscar 🤓😍
Obrigada pela receita, Beijinho de 🇵🇹
I Always love you Video❤😋
Delicious 'moist cake❤
I love this video
Assalamu alaikum mk, dont we need to soak the layers, and will the sponge become hard if we refrigerate it. Can you mention about storage also. Thank you
Thank you very much for the recipe. Csn o ude this for tall cakes?
Hi...thank you for the recipe. If I use whipped cream frosting for this cake and refrigerate it, will the cake harden due to the butter? I'm in Canada and worried about this, even if I leave it at room temperature for 2 hours before serving.
Can we use melted butter instead of vegetable oil?
Hi MK may I know if this recipe would yield 3 6" pans? What wud the baking time please
Could i use evaporated or full xream milk for the cake ?
Cam we use caster sugar instead of granulated sugar?
