@@lauramaraj5784 You might try potassium bicarbonate (no sodium) instead of baking soda and I would say you can bake a single layer cake if you like or even cupcakes. You will have to adjust your oven temp and bake times for either of these options.

I have a chocolate cake recipe that's incredibly similar to this, but you use buttermilk instead of milk. The coffee really does amp up the chocolate! I also add about a half a tablespoon of cinnamon to the dry ingredients for a little secret kick. I love to bake this as a bundt cake and then drizzle a super delicious and simple ganache over the top, then fill the center with fresh strawberries. It's my favorite treat to bring to my coworkers! That frosting looks so divine though -- I bet it would pipe beautiful rosettes on cupcakes.

@AkizukiSakura16 7 месяцев назад

@@alisonbakes6351 You should be able to! I'd nix the buttermilk in my variation and just stick with regular milk. Dutch cocoa powder is processed to be less acidic, and buttermilk is more acidic than regular milk. If you use buttermilk, you'll lose the benefit of using Dutch processed cocoa. If you're just wondering if you can use either or because you only have Dutch, you should be able to without any issues.

Also, if you don’t want to buy a quart of buttermilk if you only need it for one recipe you can make your own with whole milk and white vinegar.. for every one cup add one tablespoon of vinegar in a measuring cup and let it sit for a couple of minutes and then use it in your recipe 💁🏻‍♀️ happy baking!

It was my first attempt at making a cake. I followed your recipe step by step, but the cake turned out excessively sweet. In the buttercream, the taste of powdered sugar was overwhelming. I'm not sure if people in America enjoy such overly sweet food, but it's too much for my taste. If I were to use, let's say, about 300g of powdered sugar, it would be much better. The same goes for biscuit. If I were to use half of suggested sugar I would love it! :)

@@lau6351 exactly. Mine didn't even rise, it became a super heavy dense brownie, or more like a fudge. I found a better recipe much easier and lighter. 6 eggs, 5 full tbsp flour, 1 full tbsp cocoa, 8 tbsp sugar and 1 tsp baking powder for a 26 cm pan. Whisk egg whites with half of the sugar until it looks like a shaving cream, slightly whisk egg yolks with the rest of the sugar until becomes pale yellow, fold egg yolk mixture into egg white foam, and then mix the sifted flour and cocoa into it by folding. Pour all at once, bake for 25-30 mins in a preheated oven at 180°C and then after cooling slice into 2 or 3 layers. Super light 3 layers of cake with only ~100 gr sugar

Agree! I usually like the fudge texture, but I think with the chocolate buttercream it can be a little bit overwhelming

@@TarlanMustafayev1 three layer cake with 100 gr of sugar? Yeah, that’s not a cake Granted, 1100gr is a bit much, but we don’t have to go into the other extreme Even a banana would probably satisfy the sweet tooth better than that

That's too much sugar. Can i add half amount of sugar?

He explains why it’s important not to reduce the sugar, while he’s adding the sugar
