THE RECIPE
Ingredients
24 ounces evaporated milk
6 cups granulated sugar, divided
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 teaspoon Kosher salt, divided
2 1/2 cups unsalted butter, softened, divided
6 large eggs divided
3 teaspoons vanilla extract, divided
4 1/2 cups soft winter wheat all purpose flour, such as White Lily
2 tablespoons baking powder
2 cups whole milk
Cooking spray
SIX 8-inch round disposable aluminum pans
TWELVE 8-inch rounds parchment paper
Instructions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°. Prepare 6 8-inch disposable aluminum pans with cooking spray and rounds of parchment paper.
Step 2
To prepare icing, in a large saucepan, whisk together evaporated milk, 3 cups sugar, cocoa powder, corn syrup and ¼ teaspoon salt over medium heat. Attach a candy thermometer to pot and cook, whisking occasionally, to just at soft ball stage (234-236°F), about 15 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, cream 1 ½ cups (3 sticks) butter and remaining 3 cups sugar using a large heavy duty stand mixer. Add in eggs, 2 at a time, until well incorporated, about 2 minutes. Add in 2 teaspoons vanilla. Sift together flour and baking powder in a medium bowl. Add remaining ¾ teaspoon salt to sifted flour mixture. Add flour mixture and milk alternately in 3 additions, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Scrape down sides of mixer bowl with a rubber spatula and mix to incorporate fully, about 1 minute.
Step 4
Once chocolate icing reaches soft ball stage, reduce heat to simmer and add remaining cup (2 sticks) butter and remaining teaspoon vanilla. Stir to melt butter, about 2 minutes. Maintain a very low simmer until first round of cake layers are out of oven.
Step 5
Using a kitchen scale, add 4 oz. batter to each prepared pan. Using an offset spatula, spread batter as evenly as possible on bottom of pans. Bake 6 layers at a time for 5 minutes in preheated oven. Remove from pan by placing a wire rack on top of pan and inverting pan to release cake layer. Remove parchment from cake layer and place first layer on cake stand. Remove icing from heat.
Step 6
To assemble cake, pour about ¼ cup hot icing onto first cake layer, just enough to make a very thin layer of icing, but not enough to seep over sides of layer. Repeat with remaining layers.
Step 7
Prepare same cake pans with more cooking spray and rounds of parchment; weigh out 4 oz batter for each pan and spread layers as before. Bake 6 layers at a time for 5 minutes in preheated oven; continue layering cake with icing and baked cake layers. For top layer of icing, pour enough icing over top to seep over sides of cake. Use an offset spatula or small rubber spatula to spread a generous layer of icing to fully cover sides and top of cake. (Icing will be thicker at this point, and you will have some leftover). Let cake set at least 30 minutes or up to 1 day before slicing.

Little Layer Southern Chocolate Cake

Hi Andrew. Nice to meet you. You did a great job. I'm defiantly going to have to try this recipe.
WOW! Good job Andrew!... I might try this in another lifetime LOL God Bless
Great video, Jack! Keep up the great work 😀
Hi Andrew👋 so cool you wanted to cook with the man, the myth, the legend himself, Jack.
Cool stuff Jack! Reminds me of the time Jack Jr was the little guy next to Jack! Good times
That looks scrumptious
Nice job Andy!
Hi Andrew. You did an awesome job and you're great in front of the camera! I'm from the South (Alabama) and my granny used to make that cake for the family all the time. She would sometimes use chocolate icing and sometimes homemade caramel and sometimes she would use jelly. It was always wonderful. She made all the layers using one single cast iron griddle skillet, but the layers cooked so quickly, it didn't take very long at all. She is no longer with us but I have her special skillet that she used for her amazing cakes and watching you and Jack cook that wonderful cake has inspired me to make my granny's cake very soon! My oldest grandson also cooked with me when he was young and it reminds me of when I helped my granny in the kitchen and it is some of the best memories of my life! I hope you keep cooking and do amazing things! You are a very special young man. And thanks, Jack, for venturing out of your comfort zone! That was fun to watch. Take care.
Cool that ya got the kiddo there :) I wish kids never grew up, loved the vids of you and jack jr. super wholesome and somewhat relatable. Keep up the good work jack!
