A few years back, I left my corporate job to pursue my passion for food and baking. I started a successful cake shop in Sydney that I ran for 7 years and there were lots of lessons that I learned along the way.

RECIPES & METHOD BELOW
Chocolate Cake:
½ cup (125mL) Oil
2 cups (440g) Sugar
2 Large Eggs
1 Tablespoon (T) Vanilla extract
2 ½ cups (300g) Flour
1 cup (70g) Unsweetened Cocoa powder, sifted and levelled (I use Hershey’s Cocoa amzn.to/2vmC9B1
1 ½ teaspoon (t) Baking powder
1 ½ teaspoon (t) Baking soda
½ teaspoon (t) Salt
½ cup (125mL) Espresso
1 cup (250mL) Milk
Prep
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C)
Line the bottom of cake pans with non-stick paper
In your mixer, using the paddle, blend the oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla until pale and creamy.
In a bowl sift all dry ingredients together.
In your Mixer (3 step mixing process), alternately add the milk and dry ingredients until incorporated. Scrape bowl often.
Lastly, add in the hot espresso. Scrape bowl often.
The batter will be quite liquidy, this is normal. It’s what gives the cake its moist, pudding-like texture.
Scale batter into pans and bake for 20-25 minutes (if using 3 pans) or just until the center feels spongy. I would bake for 30-40 minutes if using only 1 pan, but looking for that same spongy center.
Ganache (can be both inside and outside)
3 ¼ cups (600g) Dark semi-sweet chocolate chips (at least 50%+) (I use Callebaut brand 54.5%, Recipe No. 811. I switched because Costco changed their Kirkland choc chip recipe), melted and cooled - amzn.to/3u4tsHo
34oz. (1L) Heavy cream
1 teaspoon (t) Vanilla extract
In a bowl, add the chocolate and vanilla into the bowl and set aside.
In a saucepan, scald (just before the boil, but don’t let it boil) heavy cream in a pot.
Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let it melt. Whisk gently to fully mix together. Emulsify with a stick blender.
Cover the surface of the ganache with cartouche or plastic wrap and let cool for a few hours or overnight before whipping lightly.
Fudge Icing (optional but worth it! - outside cake only)
1/4 cup (20g) unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks - 340g) unsalted butter, room temperature
Pinch of salt
1 lb (450g) Dark semi-sweet chocolate chips (at least 50%+) (I use Callebaut brand 54.5%, Recipe No. 811. I switched because Costco changed their Kirkland choc chip recipe), melted and cooled - amzn.to/3u4tsHo
1/2 cup (75g) confectioners' sugar, sifted
1/4 (60mL) cup boiling water
Combine cocoa and boiling water, stirring until cocoa has dissolved. In your mixer on medium-high speed, beat the butter, sugar, and salt until pale and fluffy. Then reduce the speed to low. Add melted and cooled chocolate, beating until combined and scraping down sides of the bowl as needed. Beat in the cocoa mixture.

Chocolate actually mimics the feeling of happiness, love and satisfaction in your brain when you eat it.
Chocolate contains tryptophan.
The body uses tryptophan to help make niacin, melatonin, and serotonin. Serotonin is thought to produce healthy sleep and a stable mood

Will you share your too!! I’ve never back a homemade cake in my whole life, only from a box. One of my favorites is what some call death by chocolate that I buy by the slice at Publix. I don’t have pans like hers either.
Wow! The frosting was fantastic 😍
Thank you! I like very much that... somehow there's a quality of 'old fashion charm' in this recipe and this video!
Amazing recipe Jillian! Thanks for sharing ❤️

Hands down THE BEST CHOCOLATE CAKE EVER - I've triedd soo soo many recipes but this one its just the besttt. The end product is soo good so soft and spongy and the taste is just out of the world amazing. 🥰
Wow, thanks so much the cudos, Sakina!!
Oh my gosh that is so delicious looking and I'm going to make it this weekend!!!
I grew up with this chocolate cake. My favourite butter icing has a bit of espresso and a bit of lemon juice in it. Just evens out the taste. And for moist and delicious I use apricot jam in between the layers instead of simple syrup and no butter icing in between the layers. Its absolutely wonderful! Thanks for all the handy tips. Next time I bake this cake, it will come out even more chocolaty and moist.
I just made the chocolate cake using your recipe.......it was mind blowing, so so delicious, i cant begin to express how grateful i am to you.
Tanks
This looks totally delicious!

I’ve just doubles your mixture for a larger cake I’m doing, fingers crossed it will taste amazing as yours looks xxxx
did it?
I’ve just stumbled across your videos, I get such good vibes!! Great recipes
Jillian, I just want to thank you so much for this beautiful recipe! I have tried so many chocolate cake recipes and have to say yours really is the best one I have had. Due to my preference not to use eggs, I have tried several eggless recipes in the past, but sadly been disappointed. I tried your recipe and substituted eggs for apple sauce (4 tbsp for 1 egg) and I have to say I wasn't expecting such great results! The cake turned out to be spongy and soft and tasted fantastic! Thank you again, and please carry on with the amazing work you are doing!
So great to hear Sangini! I may try this in the bakery!
@@JillianButler you said instant coffee how much should it be?
Your so amazing 😍 I love your cakes and tips... Thanks
