Postupak

Korak po korak

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans.

    Oko 5 min

    Napomena kuhara: For easy cake removal, you can also line the bottom of the pans with parchment paper after greasing.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

    Oko 2 min

  3. 3

    In a separate small, heatproof bowl, combine the chopped unsweetened chocolate with the boiling water.

    Oko 1 min

  4. 4

    Stir the chocolate mixture until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth, then set aside to cool slightly.

    Oko 2 min

  5. 5

    In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat the vegetable shortening on medium speed until creamy.

    Oko 2 min

  6. 6

    Add the granulated sugar and packed light brown sugar, and continue to beat for 3-5 minutes until light and fluffy.

    Oko 4 min

    Napomena kuhara: Scrape down the sides of the bowl halfway through to ensure everything is evenly incorporated.

  7. 7

    Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until fully combined.

    Oko 2 min

  8. 8

    Mix in the vanilla extract and the cooled chocolate mixture until just blended.

    Oko 1 min

  9. 9

    On low speed, add the flour mixture in three parts, alternating with the buttermilk in two parts, beginning and ending with the flour mixture.

    Oko 3 min

    Napomena kuhara: This method helps prevent the batter from splitting and develops a tender crumb.

  10. 10

    Mix only until the last streaks of flour disappear; do not overmix the batter.

    Oko 1 min

  11. 11

    Pour the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.

    Oko 2 min

  12. 12

    Bake for 30-35 minutes, until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.

    Oko 35 min

  13. 13

    Let the cakes cool in their pans on a wire rack for 15 minutes.

  14. 14

    Carefully invert the cakes onto the wire rack, remove the pans, and let them cool completely before frosting.

    Oko 2 min

    Napomena kuhara: Ensuring the cakes are fully cool prevents the frosting from melting.
