Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients to ensure the cake batter mixes smoothly and evenly.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a moist and tender cake.
- Gradually add the eggs to the batter, one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
- Sift the flour and cocoa powder together before adding them to the batter. This will help prevent lumps from forming.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
