This cake was delicious! For those of you cooking at elevation, I thought Id throw this in the pile. I made this cake last nightour daughter cant have gluten [or dairy], so I changed the flour to gluten free and she was so excited! After repeating the above versions multiple times I can confirm that these are absolutely amazing as cupcakes, better than any other way. Am still trying to decide if I like the glaze but overall, am really enjoying picking away at this cake, as is my family. I used KAF Triple Cocoa. The cake usually comes out well but usually is very moist almost to the point of seeming underdone. I love this site and have never had a dud, but this cake did not work for me. Candace Nelson is one of our foodie idols. The center did not sink and the cake did not overflow the pan. It tasted great, no olive oil flavor. Made with La Colombe cold brew in place of water. Thanks again! i used coffee, and used spelt flour. Im not sure. I took a lot of libertieslike 1/2 regular flour & 1/2 bread flour, regular brown sugar, brown vinegar, wrong cake pan, TJ dark chocolate bar instead of chic chips, no corn syrup, etc. I am going to do one tiny tweak replace a tablespoon or two of the olive oil with walnut oil because I bought a bottle of it and Im damned if Im not going to use the bloody thing and then possibly two more (smoked salt on the top and maybe a fine dusting of powdered walnut. How wonderful! Thanks Deb! The cake came out dark and moist and fudgy but somehow still light. Just sayin! I ended up glazing the night before as my schedule changed. I have a feeling once it is glazed it will be a very moist and tasty cake, but I usually have so few problems baking a cake I was surprised at the turn of events. This looks perfect. Thank you! Actually, if you came to Germany on your book tour I would love you a teensy bit more I mean I can dream, right? It didnt mix well enough, it didnt bake enough, total failure. Your signing is at Manuels Tavern, an old Atlanta institution for journalists and politicians (Jimmy Carter announced his first run for GA governor there in 1970, for example). I only cooked it 30 seconds in the microwave and then stirred, stirred, stirred, so thankfully I had no burnt chocolate chips. (there were slight differences in the cocoa or chocolate used, while I got a bit different results, loved both), when I made it both times I used roughly 20% less sugar, but my friend told me changing the sugar qty can be sure way to ruin a cake (again, I dont know anything about baking). Wondering if theres a way to tweak the glaze so it stays soft on day two? Will skip the glaze next time. Couldnt be easier, either. My friends called for MORE. Being celiac, I was glad to find so many non gluten recipes. I was wondering how changing it up with cocoa might work but youve done the research here! So moist and fudgy it almost stuck to the roof of my mouth like peanut butter. This cake is awesomely chocolate and so wonderfully moist yet somehow also light. Do you think this would work as a loaf cake? It bubbled up over the side of the pan and took much longer to cook than 35 mins. It will be thick and possibly murky and vividly green and amazingly peppery (warning: it will get milder with time). I used those dark baking chocolate discs. No- you should try a fatless sponge for a swiss role/ Yule log cake. Went on beautifully. Has anyone tried to make this with GF flour? I baked in a 9 inch pan for 33 minutes. not the best presentation. I weighed the ingredients, only used 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and put a pan underneath. I tried using my springform pan, but it was leaking, so I dumped it into an 8 inch one. Do you have any thoughts on whether this cake would work with GF flour, or perhaps, a combination of GF flour and corn flour, which she can do so, making it a bit like a chocolate polenta olive oil cake? What do you suggest? It is Mouth Watering and so Chocolaty. Its been my go-to chocolate cake for years. and maybe you can post the recipe there if it turns out, please? Hi Deb, Doubled this recipe to make two 9 cakes with half water half coffee. Without the glaze, should freeze just fine. Thank you Deb for this wonderful recipe that is easy to make and delicious. because I did not put down anything to catch the overflow. If its thin, it will bake much faster. You wonder if your partner does something behind your back. It was light, and moist, rich but not heavy. I dont presume Manchego to be easily found in Greece. Eggs provide structure in most cakes. Im wondering how to adjust the recipe (for time and possibly temperature) for that size loaf pan. Thanks, Deb, for this absolutely scrummy cake recipe. It cracked badly when I went to slice the cake. You cant really tell theyre dairy free! Two questions: 1 will this work in a standard bundt? I made this with bobs 1:1 flour for the first time last week based on all the comments from people who had success. I used a 913 Pyrex glass baking dish to make this twice and it was just fine. I made this the past weekend and the kids as well as myself LOVED it. It made me question whether it had been completed baked through. Id probably start by swapping the cocoa by weight for flour, dark brown sugar for more white sugar, and you could use coconut oil, I bet, instead of olive oil, if you wish. My olive oil is very good quality so its pretty strong tasting and the flavor comes out in the finished product. Ive never made a chocolate cake before and my husband said this is his favorite! Thanks, Deb. So many happy memories of eating this cake! Is the cocoa powder in the batter the same ingredient as the cocoa in the glaze?Thanks. I made this last night and hubby swooned over it. Just out of the oven and turned out of the pan, and the crumbs are wonderful, the flavor intense. Glad it worked for you. When it springs back at you when you poke it near the center, it is done. I usually make it GF for friends with sensitivities, but the cake I made yesterday for Christmas was with reg flour & absolutely sumptuous!! (Its such a small amount I dont think it will make much difference.) Though I also cant tell what it would be like with less amazing cocoa powder I used Droste, which is the best in my opinion. Vinegar and oil definitely. I make it all the time, it has even less ingredients than this one, but no olive oil. Thank you for making the connection. Delicious! Made it twice and both times it sunk in the middle. If eggs or dairy arent an issue, I do like the celebration cake in the second book, especially for kids birthdays. Do you think it would work as a bundt cake? Sift flour, baking soda and salt: In a large bowl, sift together flour, Any kind works here; hope you like the cake. bc hydro trades training centre; john dillinger children; jonathan davis cravath wedding; spelling connections grade 7 answer key unit 2; Love your books and recipes, deb! Mine took closer to 45 min in the oven. Hi Tara, Dont know if youve seen my other posts, but it took my oven a full 53 minutes to get this cake baked properly. Thank you! If youre into flavored oils, it works like a charm! I just pulled the cake out of the oven, and it smells wonderful. I used the full amount of baking soda and had no sinkage. They prevent the outer edges of your cake from setting up faster than the center. * baking soda reduced to 1 ts per Debs note in the comments, and there was a slight depression in the center, but not much, and the cake didnt have a baking soda taste. The recipe also looks another delectable one and perfect for the upcoming holiday season. If there is a next time, I will use less baking soda, as many have recommended, and omit the olive oil from the icing. This is my go to in general, but would you recommend this one or the celebration cake in your second book? Long time fan Im so excited about your second book! THIS IS THE BEST CHOCOLATE CAKE I HAVE EVER, EVER HAD. They are so wonderful. Still havent tried making the cake in a loaf pan which would make easier slicing. We used this for my daughters wedding rehearsal dinner. My husband loves it. How great would that be? If/when I do, Ill report back. When I make banana muffins for my husband I use 1 cup 1:1 and 3/4 cup GF oat flour and the texture is completely indistinguishable from regular glutened muffins. I made this cake recently, replacing all of the water with freshly brewed coffee and it came out unreal. The caveat is, I make sure that the customs rules havent changed before I go. This looks delicious, I love it so much I dont even care that it will probably ruin all my weight loss progress. If you used gluten free flour there would be nothing in this to act as a binder. Also I made this in an 8x8x3 pan and it only juuuust barely fit, though the volume should be the same as a 9 round pan. Im wondering if a little less baking soda (1 teaspoon vs. 1 1/2 teaspoons) might resolve this. Ive been reading & cooking your recipes on and off for a long time now, and today need to make a vegan chocolate cake requested by my daughter for her birthday. The birthday bake went well! Step 3. I added a tad more olive oil and tried to coax the mixture to a more liquid state. Next time, I would add more liquid. The cake is perfectly chocolatey and decadent, and Im sure Ill be making it for years to come! My chocolate icing often comes out grainy. Can I substitute balsamic vinegar for the other vinegar? I know that the chocolate used for chips is often formulated to hold its shape when melted and cooled, as in cookies, so Im not sure if this glaze depends on some aspect of that formulation or not. It was moist, fluffy, intensely chocolaty and delicious. So easy and so good! I think the coffee/water amount is way off. Oh, my goodness! Yeah, it sounds like a lot of other people had the same issue and lowering the baking soda quantity should help. 1) I made it with gluten free flour. OMG. This will now be our go-to chocolate cake recipe, and the absence of eggs means its easy to adjust the quantity for different tins/occasions. Took 40 min or a little more to get done in the middle, plus big sink in center. Totally fragile. Preheat the oven to 350F. Now weve got a 1st bday coming up and the V+GF mama has requested this, but with a white/vanilla frosting. I used coffee and added a generous dose of cardamom, which really compliments the bitterness of the coffee and chocolate nicely. I love your first book that I sometimes just read to fantasize that I have time to cook something! Thanks, Mix the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda and salt together in a large bowl. Free. Very moist. It looks like it should still stack and ice just fine.
