Moist Amish Chocolate Cake
Ingredients
  • cooking spray
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup hot water
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) for optimal results.
2
Next, take a 9x13-inch baking dish and give it a light coating of cooking spray for easy removal.
3
Now, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
4
Using an electric mixer, blend the dry ingredients together until they form a smooth mixture.
5
In a separate large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the brown sugar and butter until they become light and fluffy.
6
Gradually add eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
7
Once all eggs have been added, incorporate buttermilk into the mixture, followed by a few drops of vanilla extract.
8
Combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients in three parts, alternating with hot water and finishing with the dry ingredients.
9
Mix just until everything comes together in harmony.
10
Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish and get ready to bake.
11
Place the dish in a preheated oven and let it cook for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
12
Once done, carefully remove the dish from the oven and transfer it to a wire rack for complete cooling.
