Best Easy One Bowl Chocolate Cake Recipes

BEST EVER ONE BOWL CHOCOLATE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt until well combined.
• Add the eggs, the milk, the vegetable oil and the vanilla, and whisk these ingredients into the dry ingredients until the mixture is smooth.
• Slowly add the boiling water, whisking constantly until the cake batter is runny and smooth.
• Pour the cake batter into a greased 9-inch by 13-inch rectangular pan and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean.
• Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack while you make the frosting.
• For the frosting, whip the butter on high speed using a stand mixer or electric hand mixer until the butter is pale and smooth. Add the cocoa powder and the powdered sugar and continue to whip until everything is combined and smooth.
• If necessary, add the milk a few drops at a time to loosen up the frosting until it reaches a consistency that is spreadable. This step may not be necessary depending on the temperature of the butter you used for the frosting.
• When the cake has cooled completely, spread the frosting over the cake.
• Refrigerate the cake for about 1 hour to allow the frosting to set before serving, or serve immediately if you desire.

ONE-BOWL CHOCOLATE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter two 8-by-2-inch round cake pans; dust with flour, tapping out excess. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk in eggs, buttermilk, water, vanilla, and oil.
• Divide batter evenly between prepared pans. Bake until tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 30 minutes. Transfer pans to a wire rack; let cool 15 minutes. Invert cakes onto rack, remove parchment, then turn top-side up (to prevent sticky tops from sticking to rack); let cool completely.
• Spread 1 1/2 cups frosting over top of one cooled cake layer. Top with remaining layer. Spread a thin coat (about 1 cup) of frosting over top and sides of cake to create a "crumb coat." Refrigerate about 20 minutes, then frost top and sides of cake with remaining frosting. (For a more refined look, trim domed top of cake flat before layering and frosting.)
