How To Make the Deepest, Darkest Chocolate Cake — Baking Lessons from The Kitchn
There's chocolate cake and then there's this chocolate cake — four glorious layers of rich and tender dark chocolate cake, slathered with a whipped ganache frosting and drizzled with a bittersweet chocolate sauce. It's not the one-bowl cake you make on a Wednesday night to serve after dinner, nor is it the brownie-cake hybrid you remember eating as a kid. This is a very serious, very deep and dark chocolate cake for people who aren't afraid to shout their love of chocolate from the rooftops. The kind of cake so decadent that the only thing you can serve alongside it is a tall glass of cold milk or a cup of hot coffee.
A chocolate cake of this stature doesn't have to be complicated. Using our favorite chocolate tricks — including blooming cocoa before baking and whipping chocolate and cream into frosting — we've streamlined the making of this decadent cake for maximum chocolate flavor and smart kitchen efficiency.
