Ingredients

The first and the most important thing is to gather all the important ingredients. To bake a chocolate cake you’ll need the following :

  • butter and flour for coating and dusting the cake pan
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon baking soda
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Incase you want to bake an eggless cake, you can use any of these easily home found substitutes:

  • 1/4 cup of plain yogurt per egg
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar+ 1 teaspoon baking powder whisked together per egg
  • 1/4 cup mashed banana per egg
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce per egg

Process

The following points describe the process to bake this amazingly yummy cake.

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Preheating is a method where you leave the oven or your microwave on for 10-15 mins.
  • Butter the baking dish nicely. Dust with flour and tap out the excess.
  • Mix together all the ingredients you have gathered. Put together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl with the help of a blender or a mixer using a low speed until combined.
  • Mix it all well and make sure there are no lumps in the batter.
  • Add eggs, buttermilk, warm water, oil, and vanilla. Beat the batter on a medium speed until smooth. This should take just a couple of minutes.
  • Divide batter in a baking dish evenly and flatter it by thumping it on the slab.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes until the cake fluffs up. To check if it’s fully baked you can insert a toothpick into the centre, it isn’t cooked completely until it comes out clean.
  • Once the cake is cooked, cool the cake for 15 minutes and then turn out the cake onto a dish and allow to cool completely.
  • You can do a frosting if you wish to or enjoy it as it is. Soft and mouth melting.
