The cake is made with cocoa powder, which gives it a rich chocolate flavor. The addition of buttermilk makes it extra moist and tender, while the combination of butter and vegetable oil adds a nice richness. To top it off, a creamy chocolate frosting is the perfect finishing touch. This chocolate cake is the ultimate indulgence.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, oil, eggs and vanilla extract.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in the chocolate chips.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before frosting.

Notes

You can use either Dutch-processed cocoa powder or natural cocoa powder. Dutch-processed cocoa powder will give the cake a deeper chocolate flavor, while natural cocoa powder will give it a lighter flavor.

Make sure to not overmix the batter, otherwise the cake will be dense and dry. Also, make sure to not overbake the cake, otherwise it will dry out.

This cake is best served the same day it is made, but it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
