  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
  • For a richer flavor, use a chocolate ganache frosting. Chocolate ganache is a mixture of chocolate and heavy cream that is melted together until smooth.
  • To make a marble cake, swirl some melted chocolate into the vanilla batter before baking.
  • For a festive occasion, decorate the cake with chocolate shavings, sprinkles, or fresh berries.
