Uglychocolatecake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, mix confectioners' sugar, cake flour, and cocoa. Sift together 2 times, and set aside.
• In a clean large bowl, whip egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar with an electric mixer on high speed until very stiff. Fold in white sugar 2 tablespoons at a time while continuing to mix. Fold in flour mixture, a little at a time, until fully incorporated. Stir in vanilla. Pour into a 10 inch tube pan.
• Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for approximately 1 hour, or until cake springs back when touched.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9 inch cake pans.
• Use the first set of ingredients to make the cake. In a medium bowl, stir together the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add the eggs, milk, oil and vanilla, mix for 3 minutes with an electric mixer. Stir in the boiling water by hand. Pour evenly into the two prepared pans.
• Bake for 30 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to cool completely.
• To make the frosting, use the second set of ingredients. Cream butter until light and fluffy. Stir in the cocoa and confectioners' sugar alternately with the milk and vanilla. Beat to a spreading consistency.
• Split the layers of cooled cake horizontally, cover the top of each layer with frosting, then stack them onto a serving plate. Frost the outside of the cake.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Lightly grease a 9"X13" baking pan.
• Stir together the cake mix, eggs, water, and oil until combined.
• Set aside.
• Combine marshmallows and brown sugar.
• In another bowl, combine cocoa and 2 cups hot water.
• Now combine marshmallow and cocoa mixtures and pour into the greased 9"X13" pan.
• Spoon prepared cake mix evenly over all.
• DO NOT MIX TOGETHER.
• Bake at 350F for 45 minutes.
• Cool completely in pan.
• Flip onto a platter.
• Your cake will have a wonderfully rich layer of chocolate sauce on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 2 round cake pans with non-stick cooking spray and sprinkle with flour. Sift together all the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. In a small bowl, mix applesauce, milk, vanilla, coffee, prunes, chocolate, almond extract and egg whites. Fold into the dry ingredients. Bake for 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Remove the cake from the pan and place bottom-side up on a platter.
• Put 1 container of plain frosting in a piping bag with an X-shaped nozzle or in a resealable bag with the bottom corner snipped. Add green coloring to each of the other 2 containers of frosting and mix until they are a consistent green.
• Using an offset spatula, spread the green frosting evenly over the top and sides of the cake. Pipe the plain frosting in a Y shape to make it look like a sweater V-neck and front fastening. Decorate with cake decorations and holiday candies--use any design you like and make it your own.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar and salt. Stir together and set aside.
• In another bowl, mix the buttermilk, baking soda, vanilla and eggs. Mix with a fork and set aside.
• In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and add the cocoa. Whisk together to combine. Meanwhile, bring 1 cup water to a boil. When the butter is melted, pour the boiling water in the pan. Allow to bubble for a moment, then turn off the heat.
• Pour the chocolate mixture into the flour mixture. Stir together for a moment to cool the chocolate, then pour in the egg mixture. Stir together until smooth, then pour into a rimmed half sheet pan and bake until an inserted toothpick comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Let cool, then cut the finished cake in half so it is the size of a quarter sheet pan.

Steps:

• Mix the ingredients for the first layer and press into a 9 x 12 greased pan.
• Beat the ingredients for the second layer with a mixer and pour over first layer.
• Bake at 350°F for 35 minutes.
