No Mix Chocolate Cake

350° - 35 minutes.

Ingredients:


2 cups Sugar

1/2 cup Butter

1/2 cup Hershey's Cocoa

1 teaspoon Vanilla

1 cup Boiling Folgers Coffee

1/2 cup Buttermilk

2 Eggs

2 cups Flour

1/4 teaspoon Salt

1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda


First in the mixer beat together:

2 cups Sugar

1/2 cup Butter

1/2 cup Hershey's Cocoa


Next add to batter and beat in:

1/2 cup Buttermilk

2 Eggs

1 teaspoon Vanilla

1 cup Boiling Folgers Coffee (this is the secret ingredient and what makes this the best cake ever).


First mix together on a paper plate:

2 cups Flour

1/4 teaspoon Salt

1 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda

Then while the mixer is on a low speed add the ingredients from the paper plate into mixing bowl slowly. Continue to mix the cake batter until there are no more dry ingredients visible. Scrape sides of bowl if needed while mixing.


Take both cake pans and spray them with Pam. Then put a round sheet of wax paper (the size of the bottom of the pans) in the bottom of each of the cake pans. After this spray them again with Pam so that all the insides of both are covered.

Then pour the cake batter into the cake pans making sure that each pan has half of the batter. Then place them into a pre-heated oven of 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Test if done by inserting a tooth pick, if tooth pick comes out clean cake is done. Cool to room temperature.

Once the cake has cooled take a knife and cut around the side of the pan to loosen the cake. Then put a cooling rack on top of it and flip the cake over.


Now, remove the wax paper by slowly peeling it off horizontally rather than straight up. This will prevent the wax paper from taking pieces of cake with it.


This frosting tastes really good on top. Scroll to bottom of post.
