Steps:
- 1. Combine flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Stir to combine. Add shortening, then use an electric mixer on medium speed to blend shortening into dry ingredients. Mix until no chunks of shortening are visible. This is your cake mix, which you can keep in a sealed container for several months until you are ready to make the cake. 2. To make the cake preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease the sides and bottom of two 9-inch baking pans or one 13x9-inch pan. Lightly flour the greased pans. 3. Blend dry cake mix (from step #1) with water, oil and eggs in a large bowl with an electric mixer at low speed until moistened. Increase speed to medium and beat for 2 more minutes. 4. Pour batter into pans and bake for 30 to 33 minutes for 9-inch pans, and 35 to 38 minutes for 13x9-inch pan. You can also make cupcakes with the mix. They take 19 to 22 minutes.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the cake will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help the cake rise evenly.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
- Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature. The cake will keep for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
This dark moist chocolate cake is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It's rich, chocolatey, and moist, with a velvety smooth frosting. Follow the tips above to make sure your cake turns out perfect every time.
