  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will incorporate air into the batter, making the cake lighter and more tender.
  • Gradually add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition: This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Sift the flour and cocoa powder together: This will help to remove any lumps and ensure that the ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help the cake rise evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help the frosting to set properly.
