Chocolate Espresso Cake

One of my favorite chocolate cake recipes, so moist and a fun add to this is sliced strawberries.  I use the Ganash frosting for this cake it is amazing!

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line 2-9 inch cake pans with parchment or was circles.
  2. Sift together flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, cocoa and sugar in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add the hot espresso coffee, oil, melted butter and milk and mix it for about 2 minutes.
  4. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the eggs and vanilla. Beat for 2 more minutes. (This batter is a very liquidy batter)
  5. Pour batter in prepared cake pans and bake for about 30 minutes. The cake can be tested by using a toothpick in the center of the cake, if it comes out clean it is done.
  6. Let the cake cool in the pans for about 10 minutes. Loosen the sides with a metal spatula or knife and invert the cakes on to a cooling racks.
