Chocolate Cake with Glaze

Ingredients

Sugar - 5.3 oz
Cocoa Powder - 3.5 oz
Baking Powder - 0.7 oz
Salt - 1 teaspoon
Farm fresh eggs - 2 pieces
Activated Baking Soda - 1½ teaspoons
Milk - 7 fl oz
Vegetable Oil - 3 fl oz
Vanillin - 0.4 oz
Boiling water - 7 fl oz
Butter - 3 oz
70% Dark Chocolate - 3.5 oz
10% cream - 7.1 oz
Wheat Flour - 7.1 oz
Powdered Sugar - 1.8 oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 356°F. Grease the cake pan with butter and dust with flour.

Step 2

Mix sugar, flour, cocoa powder (50 grams), baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add milk, oil, and vanillin, and pour into the dry mixture. Mix well at medium speed.

Step 3

Pour in the boiling water (the batter will be liquid) and mix again. Pour the prepared batter into the pan and bake for 30–40 minutes at 356°F. The batter should not be dry; it should be moist. Adjust the baking time if necessary.

Step 4

For the glaze, melt the butter in a saucepan, add cream and chocolate. Cook over medium heat until the chocolate is melted.

Step 5

Then add cocoa powder and powdered sugar, stirring until smooth. The cream will thicken to your desired consistency. I achieve a non-liquid glaze after cooking for 15 minutes. If it becomes too thick, you can add more cream.

Step 6

Let the baked cake cool, poke the surface with a toothpick, and spread the glaze over it. Decorate with chocolate confetti. Let it sit for one to two hours.
