![[Request1]Devils Food Cake. The easy recipe without a mixer.](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/h_GHDHgy1h0/mqdefault.jpg)
Hint: if you don’t have a decorating turntable, you can borrrow the “wheels” under the turntable in your microwave (assuming yours has one!). Place them on your counter, pop your cakeboard or plate on top, and hey presto - instant turntable!
what a very clever idea! stood up straight away and checked it. thanks for the idea.
bitterchocc Happy to help a fellow baker! It’s not a perfect solution but it works pretty well
Absolute genius!
OH MY GOSH! That’s an absolutely brilliant idea!! I never thought of that! Thanks a bunch 💕🥳💖
Pls give this man an award. He deserves it.
Made this cake for my sister’s birthday and everyone loved it! All of the recipes I have tried so far from Jemma have been amazing!
Made this as 2 8 inch cakes. Baked around 35 minutes at 170 celcius. It is definitely a keeper. Also, bakealong or not, the purpose of her vid is to help pple who want to bake classic cakes. This recipe is simple to follow. And the end result is divine. For those having problems with the ganache setting. Note that the fat content of your cream will make a difference to the consistency. And if your in a hot country like me, pop it into the fridge. Mine was in the fridge for about 30 minutes for it to get to the consistency shown in the vid. Happy baking!!
Isnt this frosting become hard after keeping it in fridge due to high anount of butter and chocolate
@@priyankakote5926 It does set in the fridge kinda firm. But just bring the cake out and let it sit at room temperature for 20 minutes and your good to go. Of course this depends on how warm ur area is
Mine does not set at all after many hours and the layer of oil floats on top
Sounds like your ganache has split... Have a read here talesfromthechocolateshop.blogspot.com/2009/03/rescuing-split-ganache.html
I can vouch for this tip! The first time I made the ganache it was horrible and oily. Completely my fault, because I accidentally used half-and-half instead of heavy cream. Fat content really makes a difference. The second time, it came together beautifully, but it was soooo runny. Popped it in the fridge, checking on it and stirring every 10-15 min or so. Took about 30 min to achieve frosting-like consistency. After I frosted the cake, I put the whole thing in the fridge for 45 min to firm up before taking it to a party. It turned out great, but the thing about making cakes in Florida is you run the very real risk of everything melting and sliding off the plate, lol.
For 2 layered 6 inch cake, here are the quantities:
Icing
55ml double cream
95g butter
125g chocolate
Small pinch salt
Sponge
35g cocoa powder
50g brown sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
180g boiling water
100g butter
70g sugar
1 1/2 eggs
165g flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
Your welcome!
Do u mind sharing how long it takes to bake 6" cake
@@naot1293 I think it's around 20 minutes but check at 18. I made this a long time ago so I kind of forgot - sorry about that.
Thank you
I was skeptical about the measurements at first as I had always known a sponge cake to have a 1:1:1 ratio of flour, butter and sugar. So I opted to half the recipe just so I could experiment and boy was it a hit!! My sister insists it’s the best chocolate cake she’s had, and we both prefer our chocolate cakes dense and fudgey but this was light and we couldn’t believe we ate half the cake in one sitting.. at 1am! It goes quick. The hubby also asked to keep a slice for seconds and he’s not got much of a sweet tooth! Thank you Jemma, I’m baking this again in a few days for a friend’s birthday. Absolutely buzzin’! xx😆💕
P/S: I did use Dutched cocoa powder so I omitted the baking soda and also used self raising flour and got a really good rise and also added a teaspoon of instant coffee to the liquid ingredients for an extra kick ☺️
So there I was, a bit depressed with work and personal life. So I searched for "best chocolate cake" on youtube, because what I needed was to bury my face in cake. I've found this recipe among some weird ones (one had mayo - I tried it... not very good) and since I already knew this channel, and I loved every recipe I tried so far, I decided to give it a go. It looked dry at first sight when I was assembling it. The ganache looked too liquidy. But like magic, by the time the cake had cooled down, the chocolate puddle turned into this lucious, creamy, delicious ganache. I filled the cake, decorated it as far as my hunger allowed it, and I ate it. When I say "ate it" I mean the whole cake. I ate it. I don't regret it. Oh, and it's MOIST. Let me just say that if that is what the Devil has for a cake, I'm signing my ticket to Hell.
Hey! Around how long did it take for the ganache to thicken? It's been an hour and it's still a chocolate puddle as u mentioned!
what a ride it was to read your comment. definitely makes me wanna try this recipe out soon
@@geethikaashok3891 mine as well
@@taraivinituinabua4463 it actually did become thick after a while. If yours isn't working, depending on what happened, you can save it. If it's too runny , try heating it up again in double boiler and once hot enough, remove from heat and add chocolate bits in it. The chocolate should melt within 15-30 secs.
If it's all seized up , try adding a little bit of heavy cream in room temperature and heating it again under a double boiler. Keep doing it till it comes together. Chocolate ganache can always be saved :)
Don't forget to keep whisking while heating!
Aha that's great!!
But just know Jesus loves you!!😊🙌✨
Another fantastic recipe, you are my go-to gal for anything cake related. X
I made this cake yesterday for my 10 months old baby mini birthday. A must say it was amazing so soft , light , and scrumptious. 👌
Hi your frosting how did it go fluffy did u put it in the fridge
I made it this Tuesday and it was success! So happy with the cake itself, moist, soft crumb, and super super chocolatey. Oh by the way, i added a tsp of instant coffee and it intesifies the flavor! Love ya Jemma and team.
Kisses from Indonesiaaaa
i made this in 2019 on my dads birthday .he loved it .it was soooo moisted .today is his birthday (2020) and we are suprising him with the same cake .love your recipes
When I was a girl (1960’s) my mum always baked on Sunday afternoons for Sunday tea at 6pm. I used to head to the kitchen and ..... that’s where my love of baking began!
This looks deeeelish thanks.
I always bake whenever there’s a birthday in our family. Made this today and my family agreed that this is the best cake I’ve ever made! 😍😍😍 Thanks for the recipe 😀😃😄
Was it very sweet or just right?
Whoooop!!!!!👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
And you are so precise, clear and detailed in the ingredient portions! Love it, love it, love it! Brilliant new idea, Thank you Jemma!
This was great! I love classic recipes, they are always a hit and not overly complicated. Looking forward to the next one :)
The ganache looks incredible, so soft and easy to work with, that will be a life saver in the kitchen!🍰🤗
I was all gung ho making this and then realized my tins are 8 inches not 7! But anyway one 2 layer cake and 6 cupcakes later I’m so happy with the result. Jemma it would be so cool if you did these in a live stream video, then it would feel more like we were actually baking along with you and more different from your usual recipe videos. You could break it into 2 live stream videos per recipe maybe, one to when the baking starts and the second from when the baking or cooling ends? I wouldn’t care if its midnight where I am I’d still bake along with you!
was so so excited and waiting eagerly for the bakealong looking at the clock since 10:50..😀
Vatsal Narang hooray!! I hope you enjoy it!
Hi Jemma. Thanks a lot for this recipe. Did it for my daughter’s birthday and it turned delicious. I used your buttercream recipe as well, and decorated it as a blue Elmo cake, to meet the requirements of my 2 year old toddler. 😅
I follow you from Lima, Peru. My daughter found your channel by mistake a year ago 🤣, and I love it!
I love the idea. ❤ And who doesn't love chocolate cake? Thank you so much for the recipe.
N a t h a n
@@blueberrys7165 what?! How can you not like chocolate cake?!
Made this today for my daughter's birthday! Just so you know......I've been so careful with calories for a full month but have just stuffed my mouth with the shavings and licked my ganache covered fingers to the bone😔 ......so delicious! Thank you so much for the recipes( and the signed tea towel!!!)
my dearest jemma this recipe is soooo goooood that i cant put another chocolate cake in my mouth ,its so devilishindeed. i just wanted to say i added a pich of salt to my dry ingredient too its makes hell lot of dif but i cant ty enough in my life ,my close ppl and i just simply swear by it lots of luv from india
Sunday bake from the beloved Jemma.. you are the best , you are my true bake inspiration. Greetings from Greece.
love all your videos. i’ve never been interested in livestream, i love this medium as you can watch it in your own time. many thanks for your hard work making these Mike in NZ
I'd love to see some classic biscuits, maybe sandwich type too.
I’m a mega fan hence I wish this bakealong were live though. It’s way more fun and unique! Love ya Jemma!
Maybe some cream puffs another time? They’re a lot easier than they seem, but involve some really useful skills to learn.
Made this cake last December and it was absolutely delicious! Moist, soft, yumm 🤤. I baked it for a family members birthday and we could not get enough! Even those who just saw the pictures have been asking me to bake this cake, till date! Cupcake Jemma's recipes are everything 😋
I have made this cake numerous times and everyone loves it. Surprisingly chocolate cake is one many men are not keen on. This cake is the exception everyone loves it. Great recipe and the ganache is just so easy and delicious. Another winner from this baker
Hi Jemma, Can you show us how to make a black forest cake please?
Yes please.
I’d like to see this too
Yesss!!!!
Yes please ❤️
yasss pleaseeee
You are my favorite!!! Watching your videos at the end of a long day is very relaxing! I have put you recipes into practice. My fave are the red velvet cupcakes, oreo cupckaes, and blueberry coffeecake! Please keep sharing! I would love to see more breakfast cake recipes!
I made this choclate cake it was the most delicious choclate cake i had trust me eventhough i have made 6 to 7 choclate cakes from different recipies
Perfect sweetness and super moist she was absolutely right when she said it melts in your mouth
Would recomond this to everyone
Ty jemma all recipies i have made from your channel are always sucessful and delicious
My brother though the cake was bough from a bakery and everyone loved it
It is soooooo satisfying to see the ganache spread out. It's so smooth and pretty😍
hi Jemma, what about a live Bakealong? You can make something like a no bake pie.. something which is quick to whip up.. live would be much more fun!
Vatsal Narang yeeeeeeeeees!!!!!!
I thought this was going to be live haha I was a little disappointed when I found out it was a video
@@reishakarnani6125 same! but I was not little, but quite disappointed..
A live bake along is all well & good but i bet you’ll all still end up pausing when you miss something or cant keep up lol
@@mikebe2090 i agree with you mike Be i like this way as i was baking along i did miss something and i ended pausing it going back and following it correctly and it turned out amazing
I'd love to see you make a Red Velvet cake using oil.
Oh my god I tried this recipe and it was AMAZING! Everyone loved it! I will definitely be making this again. Thank you Jemma for this lovely recipe!
"Make yourself a cup of tea and relax" - love your videos, you give so many very very good tips which you don't hear on other videos. Thank you x
I am so thankful for this super easy cake recipe! it was my first attempt at baking a cake add to it it was my Brother's birthday! I had to run to the store to get heavy cream. I am pleased to announce that the cake was a huge success! thanks so much again for this easy breezy cake recipe! lots of love!
so happy to participate in this one together ❤️
Very personal Jemma! I love it, bring family and friends together 💖
I love your tutorials.
They are always so thorough and you give a great understanding of what not to do as well as what to do and why! Thank you as always.
I didn’t get a chance to make this, this weekend as we had a houseful of 8 (standard weekend with all the kids). The fact it’s pre recorded and still on here though is great and I’m definitely going to have a go soon! Thanks again Jemma! x
Beautiful recipe ❤️
Thanks for sharing , sending you warmest regards from Nepal 🇳🇵🙏
Nice 👌
Looks so yummy 😋
Yes
I make this cake a lot. It is so easy and anyone who likes chocolate will love this cake. The ganache is great and keeps very well. I use bournville chocolate and cocoa powder and find that it is just the prefect sweetness. Even people who do not like chocolate cake like this one. Thank you Jemma another success.
It looks super delicious!! Never failed following your recipes
😆😆It look so tasty cant wait to make it
I made it just a few days ago for my husband birthday. The cake turned out very good, I just use simple syrup with some good quality vanilla extract. Because ganashe doesn't give to the sponge enough moisture.
I made this for a friend's birthday and it was a big hit. I will say that the cake's texture was AMAZING, moist and fluffy, but the flavor was a little alkaline? for me. Like I could really taste the baking soda. No one else seemed to notice, but I thought I would share my experience. I baked two batches in two 9-inch pans for each batch at 340F for 30 minutes. I halved the ganache frosting recipe to make just enough to fill in-between the layers.
Three batches of your cupcake buttercream frosting recipe was the perfect amount to frost the outside and do little dollops on top to decorate. Since I was doing a 3-color ombre effect, this worked out perfectly :-)
Can i ask what type of cocoa did you use. Natural or dudched?
@@rachaelcarter8143 I used dutch cocoa powder because it's a bit darker and I was going for a really dark chocolate cake. I guess that could have also contributed to the alkaline flavor. I'll try it with natural, see if that makes a difference.
@@candicewaller403 Yes i think that was it. By using dutched process you are omiting the bulk of the acid needed and raising the PH.
just made my first cake ever NOT out of a box! Thank you so much Jenna....super excited and recipe came out great!
Thank you for this cake recipe, my family love it..👍
Hey Jemma! It would be really cool if you could do a live bakealong, and then while the thing is baking, you could answer some questions! That would be so cool I love you channel!😃
The sponge of this cake is the most moist sponge I've ever eaten. So delicious 😋
Every chocolate cake recipe I've ever tried that contains hot water has never turned out light. If I try this one & it does I will love you for ever 😋😂
Tell us how it goes. If you don't like this recipe try the recipe on the bon appetit channel by Chris. It is really good. Plus it uses milk.
@@Oyinscorner Thank you 😊
Jemma, you look so beautiful in red. :) Thank you for sharing your recipes with us! I have also noticed that you have been speaking slower in videos lately which is easier to follow along. Thank you! Happy Valentine's Day!
Yup.. Would love to watch you in a livestream..
Rainy day and made just one layer to satisfy a chocolate craving. The flavor is rich and the cumb on this cake is awesome! Delicious.....Thank you Jemma.
I think real time would be good even if it’s not live! Also a snapshot at the start of the video of tools and ingredients for cake and the same for the ganache so we are abit more prepared instead of having to pause and grab ‘oh ok eggs oh and flour’ .. can’t wait for the next one! Also the cake tasted amazing!
WHO ELSE LOVES JEMMA'S BAKES? 😍❤
I do!
@@AnaBanana-zw5ib so do i
Omg yeassssssssss your making a full in unicorn cake I literally had to make one for my cousins bday and you didn’t have a recipie on it omg know we will yessssss😬😬😬😬😂😂😂😂😂❤️👌👌👌
This new type of videos is a great idea! Thx for your tips and recipes! 😄🍰
Just made this cake
Best ever, perfect recipe better than posh shops
Thank you so much
Oven already preheated, everything measured, ready for baking! :)
How did it turn out?
I’d love to see sticky toffee pudding and maybe a steamed pudding or something like that.
Just mixing my butter and sugar in my kitchen aid. Can’t wait for a slice of this cake 😍😍
Ooooh yes that would be good. My hubby's favorite.
OMG yes definitely a sticky toffee pudding!
I’m glad your bake along is this format rather than livestream. If I miss the time (as I’m in Australia), I would never go and rewatch a 2 hour video.
This looks terrific, Jemma. I will make this later in the week. Can't wait to try it! Thanks for sharing your recipe.
Live streaming could be a hassle, that's understandable but maybe these bakealongs can use a real-time system. So when you say whip the sugar/butter for five minutes, you can use some b-roll of that while running an on-screen five-minute timer with us. That way we don't have to keep pausing our phones, and will really feel like we are baking along with you. Either way, it's gonna be a lot of fun to flex on my friend's measly box cakes with this one.
Also she's using a stand mixer, very little people have those at home!
Jemma you are trully INSPIRING really I improuved my baking so much with your videos and your tips thank you so much I am one of your biggest fan a lot of love from ALGERIA
Super lovely cake! A completely different recipe that I made earlier today was a complete fail and this one saved the day! I added a bit of instant coffee to my batter and it turned out incredible.
My mouth is watery just watching you put together this amazing cake!
Plus, many of you don’t realize how long these processes really are....if this were live-streamed, it would take hours. Who’s willing to stay for that long? How would anyone keep that entertaining for that long? Think these things through.
Hi Jemma, please show us how to make a light and fluffy vanilla cake that is not too sweet
Yes please.
Yes. I would love to know.
Yes plz
She already did that
try her victoria sponge cake recipe!! absolutely perfect and not to sweet!❤️❤️❤️
Would love to see a classic lemon drizzle recipe! Or a sticky toffee cake? Love your videos ☺️ such a good idea going back to basics with the classics 🙌🏻
Made it today for me friend's birthday and everyone loves it! I always follow Gemma's recipes since they are all good and yummy
Learning how to bake a delicious fudge brownie would be great!!!
Perfect timing...
Perfect cake...
Perfect birthday gift...
Happy birthday tooo meere!!! 😍🌈💐😀😃😀
Thank you, Jemma! 💐
Lia A. Eastwood happy birthday!
wow everyone must try this recipe!! will not disappoint!! thank you so much Jemma for sharing this recipe!!
Thanks for this! I did forget to get the ingredients...and I am watching this at 4:40PM on a Sunday so all the shops are closed...welcome to life in France! I will make it another day.
That looks so delicious!...i have a question about the level of the cakes. I see all the best bakers have to level their cakes, but this one guy uses those wet strips and his cakes are perfect every time. No waste. Why do not all the bakers do this?
I’m not a professional baker, but I believe that it depends on how much it domes, if there is a lot of doming (if that is a word) you would probably need to level, however if it is quite flat I don’t think it needs to, overall it depends on the persons preference and how much the cake domes.
Hope this helps. 😊
PMS Pam Made Soap Those strips are good but you need to extend the baking time
Hi, Jemma I think you should do it in a live stream format next time I am really enjoying baking along but I think it would be more fun as a live stream.
Wilf Gordon exactly I was literally expecting for a live stream
@@jasonyuen6915 Yeah same still loved it though😀
@@jasonyuen6915 same here
It makes it a lot harder to watch in other countries
@@bekah5935 but y?
Looks so delish I'm drooling! Thank you for the recipe Jemma xxx
Tried this chocolate cake too .... soo rich and tasty.... thanks Jemma for sharing your secret recipes ....
OMG looks amazing!! Could you please add ingredient measurements for a 9” cake? Thank you
Thanks a lot Jemma, i guess you can show us how to make apple crumble tarte(pie)
Hi, Jemma, i'm loving your bake along. Thanks so much!
I'd like to see your take on cinnamon rolls sometime. Thank you again.
Looks sooo yum n soothing
Will definitely try it soon! Surely on my to do bucket list!
Hi Jemma! I really loved the idea of a baking along with you. My cake is already in the baking :D but I think it would be more baking with you if it's not cuttet like a livestream or so? 😘
Pleaaase make a black forest cake!!!
Excellent beautiful work Jemma👏👏👏👏
Hi Jemma. I give this chocolate receipe a try and it was absolutely delicious. The only I did different was added coffee in the boiling water. This is my best chocolate receipe ever. Thank you sooo much. Xxx
Hi Jemma, what cake tins do you use? Also could you recommend a good vanilla extract?
Love these new videos!!
IGNORE THE DOOM & GLOOM COMMENT'S, YOU DID GOOD, THANK'S
Love this! Looking forward to the next one :)
I would have added sprinkles to this nice ganache
Love from Australia ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Please make tarts too!
Lemon tart maybe !??
anamunir I love lemon tart or the French named tart au citron. Actually I love anything sweet which is why I’m watching this whilst being on the ketogenic diet rather than making it.
Jemma's shown us how to make short crust pastry, lemon curd, and meringue. Just assemble and you've got yourself a lemon pie. 😊😊
as always a candid display of your culinary genius!
Woooww can't wait to try this recipe, thank you! 😍😍 i hope that you also can share classic vanilla cake that ain't too sweet but got rich flavour, that would be awesome 😘😘
I really want to see yorkshire pudding!!!
Yes that would be fantaboulos!!!!
PS, it's 10pm here in Melbourne but totally worth it :)
Jessica Price snap!! 😊
I made this cake yesterday for my birthday....very delicious indeed. Thank you Jemma
Wow, I love that you made this recipe with butter most chocolate cakes are made with oil and are really unhealthy so great job and thanks for the amazing recipe♥️♥️♥️♥️
