Basic Chocolate Layer Cake
Source of Recipe
Corner Sweet Shoppe
List of Ingredients
5 tablespoons butter
3 1/2 squares Baker's chocolate, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup milk
2 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
Recipe
Cream butter and sugar together
Add melted chocolate and eggs to the butter/ sugar mixture and beat
until smooth.
Add a half cup of the flour into which the baking powder has been
blended.
Then add the milk and vanilla and the remaining flour, alternating
them.
The cake batter will be stiff enough to drop from a spoon (which may
seem stiffer than other cake batters)
Beat until smooth
Bake in 2 square or round cake pans, for 20-25 minuts at 350 degrees
(325 for a dark coated pan) or until the cake springs back when
touched with a finger.
When the cake is totally cool, frost the bottom layer, then add the
top and frost the outside
