To Die For Chocolate Cake

Ingredients

Cake:

1 Cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder

2 Cups Boiling Water

2 ¾ Cups All-Purpose Flour

2 Teaspoons Baking Soda

½ Teaspoon Salt

½ Teaspoon Baking Powder

2 ½ Cups White Sugar

1 Cup Unsalted Butter, Softened

4 Large Eggs

1 ½ Teaspoons Vanilla Extract

Frosting:

⅓ Cup Unsalted Butter, Softened

2 Cups Confectioners’ Sugar

2 Tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder

1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Filling:

1 Pint Heavy Whipping Cream

1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract

1 Cup Confectioners’ Sugar

Directions

Step 1 Start cake: Place cocoa in a medium bowl. Gently pour boiling water over top and stir to combine; let cool, about 15 minutes.

Step 2 Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.

Step 3 Sift together flour, baking soda, salt, and baking powder into a mixing bowl.

Step 4 Combine sugar and butter in a large mixing bowl; beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla. Add flour mixture alternately with the cooled cocoa mixture, mixing only until combined. Pour 1/3 of the cake batter into each of the prepared pans, spreading evenly.

Step 5 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean and cakes pull away from the sides of the pans, 18 to 22 minutes. Remove cakes from the oven and set on a wire rack to cool for about 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert cakes carefully onto the wire rack and let cool completely, about 20 more minutes.

Step 6 While the cakes are cooling, make frosting and filling: Beat butter for frosting in a mixing bowl until creamy. Gradually mix in confectioners’ sugar, cocoa, and vanilla; continue to mix until light and fluffy, 7 to 10 minutes. Set aside.

Step 7 Make filling: Whip heavy cream and vanilla in a bowl until cream becomes thick. Add confectioners’ sugar and continue to whip until stiff but not too grainy.

Step 8 Fill and frost cake: Remove cooled cake layers from pans. Trim any top surfaces to make them flat. Place one layer on a nice plate and spread 1/3 of the filling over the top. Top with another layer and another 1/2 of the remaining filling. Place the remaining cake layer on top. Spread frosting around the sides of the layers, leaving a ridge that extends up over the top edge. Spread the remaining filling over the top of the cake, inside the ridge of frosting. 12 Servings
