FUDGY CHOCOLATE CAKE (KLADDKAKA)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Meanwhile, sift the flour and cocoa powder through a fine-mesh sieve onto a sheet of parchment, to remove any lumps. Set aside. Crack the eggs into a bowl; add the sugar and whisk well to combine. As soon as the butter has melted, add the chocolate; stir with a wooden spoon to combine as the chocolate melts, about 3-5 minutes.
• Add the flour and cocoa mixture to the eggs, little by little, stirring well between additions to prevent lumps. Once the batter is well mixed and smooth, add the melted butter and chocolate; stir well to combine. Spray the bottom and sides of a springform pan with nonstick spray and line the bottom with parchment paper. Pour in the batter; place in the oven to bake, 20-25 minutes.
• Cake is done when a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool the cake before removing from pan, 10-15 minutes. (Note: In the meantime, make the whipped cream. In a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip heavy cream on medium speed, 30 seconds. Turn to high and whip until medium peaks form, 1 minute.) When cake has cooled, cut into slices and garnish with whipped cream, fresh berries, and a dusting of confectioner's sugar before serving.

SOUTHERN CARAMEL CAKE

Steps:

• Prepare the cake: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour two (9-inch) cake pans. In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl halfway through.
• Add eggs, one at a time, and mix, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition. Add about a third of the flour and mix on low speed until combined. Add about half of the buttermilk and continue to mix until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Continue to add flour and buttermilk in the same way, beginning and ending with the flour.
• Add vanilla and combine fully, making sure not to overmix.
• Divide batter evenly between pans, and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before turning the cakes onto wire racks to cool completely.
• As the cake bakes, make the icing: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Add the brown sugar and whisk to combine. Bring to a gentle boil over medium and let the mixture bubble for 5 minutes, whisking constantly. Carefully and slowly add the buttermilk (it will bubble up), stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a full, rolling boil. Remove from heat and add salt. Transfer mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment.
• With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the sifted confectioners' sugar, mixing until smooth, then add vanilla extract and mix to combine. The icing should look glossy and pour easily from the bowl.
• While the icing is still warm, spread about 1 cup icing on one cake, then top with the second cake. Use the rest of the icing on the top and sides of the cake. The icing will set up as it cools. If the icing starts to harden, microwave the icing in 10-second intervals until smooth. (You can also make the icing up to 3 to 5 days in advance, and keep it in the refrigerator in an airtight container.) Serve immediately.
