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 60%.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for baking chocolate cake is 350°F (175°C). A lower temperature will result in a dense, fudgy cake, while a higher temperature will produce a drier, crumblier cake.
- Don't overbake the cake: Overbaking can make the cake dry and crumbly. Check the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
