Chocolate Cake Cocktail Recipes

Steps:

• Pour sugar onto a small plate. Cut a slit in the middle of each lemon wedge, slide around the rim of 2 shot glasses and dip rims into the sugar.
• Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the hazelnut liqueur and lemon-flavored vodka to the shaker. Cover and shake until chilled; pour into shot glasses. Hang the lemon wedges on the rims.

Steps:

• Measure all ingredients into mixing bowl.
• Blend with electric mixer, beginning on low setting, and increasing speed until batter is of smooth consistency.
• Pour into greased and floured cake pan (s) (1 9x13 or 3 small layer).
• Bake at 350 degrees until toothpick tests clean.
• Frost with your favorite frosting when cool.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine all cake ingredients; mix well. Pour into a 13x9-in. pan and sprinkle with topping ingredients. Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes. Meanwhile, combine all sauce ingredients in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. When cake is done and still warm, pour sauce over cake. Cool to room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan with 3-inch high sides. Wrap bottom of pan securely with aluminum foil so it comes up about 1-inch on the sides. Set aside.
• Melt the chocolate chips with the instant coffee granules and water in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each melting, for 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave). Do not overheat or chocolate will scorch. Set aside to cool.
• Beat the butter, margarine, and white sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add the room-temperature egg yolks one at a time, allowing each egg yolk to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Pour in the flour gradually, mixing until just incorporated. Fold in the melted chocolate; mixing just enough to evenly combine.
• Beat egg whites until foamy in a large glass or metal mixing bowl. Continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites should form a sharp peak that holds its shape. Fold egg whites a third at a time into the chocolate mixture; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour the batter into prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 1 hour to 1 hour and 5 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack. Sift confectioners' sugar over the top of the cake before serving.

Steps:

• combine and shake. serve in a glass over ice and garnish with whipped creme if desired.

Steps:

• Add the ice cream, vodka, chocolate liqueur and chocolate syrup to a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour into a tall glass and garnish with whipped cream and toasted coconut.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Lightly grease and flour a 9 x 13 inch baking pan; set aside. Place cake mix, pudding mix, fruit cocktail and its juice, eggs, oil and finely chopped pecans in a large mixing bowl. Blend with an electric mixer on medium speed for 3 minutes. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Combine light brown sugar and coarsely chopped pecans in a small bowl. Sprinkle this over the top of the cake. Bake until the pecans look toasty and the center springs back when lightly touched in the center, about 40-45 minutes. Meanwhile prepare the glaze. Place butter, sugar, cocoa, and milk in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir and bring to a boil, then remove from the heat and stir in the coarsely chopped pecans. Keep warm. Remove cake from oven and allow to cool in pan for 10 minutes. Spread glaze over warm cake, spreading evenly. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 10 by 3-inch round pan with butter, line the bottom and sides of the pan with parchment paper, and grease the paper. (I'll let you just grease, line the bottom of the pan, and lightly flour the sides if you're feeling lazy.)
• Place a large sifter or a sieve in a large mixing bowl. Add the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and sift.
• Add the sugar and whisk until combined.
• In another large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla together.
• Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk until there are no lumps and the batter is smooth.
• Carefully pour in the boiling water and stir until combined. (Watch the little ones with the hot water!)
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake in the center of the oven for approximately 50 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted in the center comes out clean, and the cake bounces back when lightly pressed.
• Remove from the oven and let the cake stand for 10 minutes. Run a butter knife around the cake to gently release. Peel off the parchment paper from the sides. Invert the cake, peel off the bottom piece of parchment, and cool on a wire rack.
• Variation:
• Coffee Enhanced Chocolate Cake: Swap the cup of water for a cup of hot black coffee.
