Here's another great chocolate cake from the back of the Ghirardelli
Cocoa box:
Grand Ghirardelli Fudge Cake
2 c. unsifted cake flour
1.75 c. sugar
0.75 c. Ghirardelli Cocoa
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
0.5 tsp salt
1 c. butter or margarine (very soft)
0.75 c. milk
0.5 c. water
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
Heat oven to 350F. Measure the 6 dry ingredients into large mixer
bowl. Mix on low 1 minute to combine dry ingredients. Add remaining
ingredients, all at once. Mix on medium 1 minute, scraping down bowl,
to blend mixture; beat on high for 3 minutes. Spread into 2 parchment
lined or greased and lightly floured (9 by 1-1/2-inch) round cake
pans. Bake at 350F for 30 to 35 minutes, cool 5 minutes. Remove
layers and cool on racks. Frost if desired.
Notes: I've used all-purpose flour without problem. I line my cake
pans with wax paper (stuck down with a little shortening). I've made
this in a 9x13 oblong -- just watch the time, it usually takes 5-10
min. longer. A really elegant cake can be made by using Cool Whip or
stabilized whipped cream to frost with (chill the layers first). Then
use a vegetable peeler to make curls from a thick chocolate bar and
arrange around the top of the cake. Little chocolate bits made in the
process of doing the curls can be sprinkled in the center.
