Hey Chef Kendra here and today we learn how to make chocolate cake. We have our ingredients
out. It seems like a lot of stuff but it s a really easy cake to put together. We are
going to start with shifting our flour and our cocoa powder. Now we are going to pour
our flour into a large bowl, then we are going to add our sugar to the bowl. Now we are going
to add our cocoa powder. OK, once all that stuff is in there we are going to mix it up
a bit. Be pretty gentle at this point. Now goes in our baking powder, and our baking
soda, and some salt. We going to mix it up a little more and then move on to the wet
stuff. In goes our eggs and they are room temperature. Pour in the vanilla extract.
Now the whole milk goes in, and finally our vegetable oil. Now once all the stuff is inside
we are going to blend our batter for a couple of minutes on medium. Now we are going to
pour a cup of boiling water into our batter and our stir it up well, don t use the electric
mixer for this or your batter is going to be all over the kitchen. Just stir it up with
a spoon until the water is mixed in. The batter will be extremely thin, however guy this is
what helps our cake stay moist. We are going to pour our batter into a bundt pan that has
been buttered and floured well. We have our oven preheated to 350 degrees. The link to
this recipe can be found in the About section below. OK, bake this for 45 minutes. On to
the chocolate frosting, we have powdered sugar here, now add the cocoa powder and sift this
into a medium bowl we don t want any lumps in our frosting do we guys? Now goes in some
melted butter, in goes some milk, and we are going to finish this off with our vanilla
extract. We are going to stir this to get it started then we are going to switch over
to the electric mixer so it will be nice and smooth. Our cake is ready; you can tell how
moist it is just by looking at it. We just going to use a silicone spatula top to loosen
up the sides because we don t want to damage our pan. Let it cool for 10 minutes before
removing from the pan. Frost if you like. OK, share and if you have not already. Subscribe.
Chef Kendra is out. Peace.
