Dark Romance Chocolate Blackberry Cake 😋❤️
Ingredients:
1 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup whole milk, at room temperature
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup boiling water
1 and 1/2 cups fresh blackberries, plus extra for garnish
Chocolate ganache (see recipe below)
Edible flowers, for decorating (optional)
Directions:
Set your oven to 350°F (177°C) and prepare two 9-inch round cake pans by greasing, flouring, and lining them with parchment paper.
In a big mixing bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until thoroughly blended.
Slowly combine the wet ingredients with the dry, mixing until you achieve a smooth batter.
Carefully mix in the boiling water until fully incorporated.
Gently fold the fresh blackberries into the batter.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pans.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Take the cakes out of the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool fully.
Once cooled, layer the cake with chocolate ganache in between and spread it on top. Add fresh blackberries and edible flowers as decoration, if desired.
Savor every bite! ❤️
