Best Chocolate Cake on the Face of the Earth

Grease and flour a 13X9 cake pan or two 9" round pans. Combine all the dry ingredients in large mixer bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients and beat at medium speed for 2 minutes (batter will be thin). Pour into prepared pans, bake 35-40 minutes for large pan or 30-35 minutes for round pans. Cool on rack before frosting. Mocha Cocoa Frosting 1/3 cup melted butter 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 3 cups powdered sugar 1/2 cup baking cocoa 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/3 cup brewed black coffee Add vanilla to butter. sift together sugar, cocoa and salt. Add dry ingredients alternately with coffee to butter mixture, beating to spreading consistency. (You may not need all the coffee, and I always use more cocoa than called for to make it extra yummy). From Kathleen Rinta: Kathleen says "I took this cake to the Clark Co. Fair twice; won blue ribbons both times. It's the only chocolate cake I'll make, and a great family favorite. Frost it with the Mocha Cocoa Frosting; a very, very good cake!" |
