CLASSIC CHOCOLATE CAKE

This classic chocolate cake is delicious! It took me months of trial and error to perfect the recipe. The cake's taste and texture is slightly delicate and light yet still somehow and rich. The dark chocolate coating on top is the finishing touch, making the cake both aesthetically pleasing and sinfully chocolaty!

Best of all, the Classic Chocolate Cake is actually healthy!

Ingredients
2 cups whole grain flour (ex., whole wheat, whole spelt)
1/3 cup cocoa powder (use more or less, depending upon taste)
1/2 cup milk powder (optional, adds a creamy flavor)
2 tsp. baking soda
1.5 tsp. white stevia powder (depending upon taste use more or less)
1/4 tsp. salt

2 large eggs
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup butter
1/3 cup molasses

1.7 ounces (50 grams) of dark chocolate

Directions
Let butter, eggs and buttermilk reach room temperature. Mix the butter with the molasses, either by hand or with a mixer. Then add in the eggs, mix well. Finally, stir in the buttermilk.

Simply place the dry ingredients into a separate bowel, mix well by hand.

Pour the dry into the wet ingredients. Mix either by hand or with a mixer. The batter's texture should be reminiscent of waffle or very thick pancake batter, not as runny as regular cake batter.

Bake at 350°F (175°C), for 25-30 minutes. Insert a toothpick to test for doneness; when the cake is done, the toothpick will come out near but not completely clear.

Now add the finishing touch! Simply heat the chocolate on the stove using a very low heat, then coat the top of the cake in a layer of decadent dark chocolate!

Enjoy!
