A wet chocolate cake is a moist, rich, and indulgent dessert with a decadent, fudgy texture. Here’s a simple recipe to make a delicious wet chocolate cake:
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water (for that extra moistness)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or one 9×13-inch baking pan.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the wet ingredients: Add the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix using an electric mixer or a whisk until smooth.
- Add the boiling water: Slowly pour in the boiling water while mixing. The batter will be thin and watery, but this is what gives the cake its moist, wet texture.
- Bake the cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan(s) and bake for 30-35 minutes (for the 9-inch pans) or 40-45 minutes (for a 9×13 pan), or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and frost: Let the cake cool completely in the pans. Once cooled, you can frost it with your favorite chocolate frosting or serve it plain. The cake can also be served with a drizzle of chocolate sauce for an extra indulgent treat!
Enjoy your delicious, moist, and fudgy chocolate cake!
