AMAZING SOLAN FAMILY CHOCOLATE CAKE (AKA 3-HOLE CAKE)



Amazing Solan Family Chocolate Cake (Aka 3-Hole Cake) image

This is a Swedish cake recipe; I got it from a dear friend who made it at several parties during college and always got rave reviews. Now I'm the one who gets all the credit when I make it : ) My family loves it; I play the "guess-the-secret-ingredient" game (the vinegar) and no one ever has... though they've guessed everything from peanut butter to cheese! I love it because it's relatively "healthy" (no dairy, no eggs, low-fat), while it's still amazingly moist and chocolaty and dense. (You can make it even lower fat if you use only 1/4 C oil and sub. 1/2 C applesauce).

Tips for Baking a Moist and Flavorful Three-Hole Kahlua Coconut Cake

- **Use fresh ingredients.** This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cake. Use real butter and eggs, and make sure your coconut milk is full-fat. - **Don't overmix the batter.** Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix the batter until it is just combined. - **Bake the cake in a preheated oven.** This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly. - **Don't overbake the cake.** Test 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.** This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
