Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 200 gm Milk condensed
- 57 gm Butter unsalted, softened
- 1/2 cup Blackstrap Molasses
Dry Ingredients
- 3/4 cup All-Purpose Flour also known as maida
- 1 1/2 Tbsp Cocoa Powder unsweetened
- 1/4 tsp Baking Soda
- 3/4 tsp Baking Powder
- 3.5 drops Chocolate Extract
Other
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract optional, enhances flavor
- 1/2 cup Milk as needed for consistency
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans.
Combining Wet Ingredients
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and condensed milk until light and fluffy. Beat in the molasses and vanilla extract (if using) until well combined.
Combining Dry Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and baking powder.
Combining Wet and Dry Ingredients
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Adjusting Batter Consistency
- Stir in chocolate extract. Add milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the batter reaches a pourable consistency.
Baking the Cake
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cooling and Serving
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely. Once cool, frost or garnish as desired.
