Indulgent Chocolate Cake with Decadent Chocolate Syrup – An Exquisite Delight!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 cup of whole milk
- 1 cup of soybean oil
- 1 cup of cocoa powder (50% cocoa content)
- 2 cups of sifted all-purpose flour
- 3 eggs
- 1 tablespoon of baking powder
For the Chocolate Syrup:
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup of whole milk
- 1 tablespoon of unsalted margarine
- 1 cup of cocoa powder (50% cocoa content)
Instructions:
- Begin by assembling all the required ingredients. Then, in a blender, combine the eggs, milk, oil, and sugar until a smooth, creamy mixture forms. Gradually add in the sifted flour and cocoa powder, alternating between the two.
- After each addition, beat the mixture thoroughly, ensuring a uniform consistency. Finally, gently fold in the baking powder using a spoon until fully incorporated.
- Transfer the batter into a pre-greased baking pan dusted with cocoa powder. Ensure an even spread of the batter.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake the cake for approximately 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Meanwhile, prepare the chocolate syrup by combining all the syrup ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until the mixture thickens slightly, ensuring it doesn’t boil.
- Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven and generously drizzle the warm chocolate syrup over the top, allowing it to seep into the cake.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before serving. For an extra touch of elegance, garnish with chocolate sprinkles and fresh strawberries if desired.
- Slice, serve, and savor the rich, velvety goodness of this heavenly chocolate cake with its luscious chocolate syrup. Enjoy!
