Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup grated chocolate I used unsweetened baking chocolate
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 cups cake flour
  • 2 eggs beaten

Instructions

  • Grease and flour two 8 or 9 inch round cake pans. I also recommend lining with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a small saucepan, cook chocolate and milk together until thickened. Stir frequently. Set aside and allow to cool.
  • Combine butter and sugar in an electric stand mixer. Beat until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, and beat until combined.
  • In a separate bowl, combine baking soda and cake flour. Mix together, and add to sugar/butter mixture. Beat to combine.
  • Stir in cooled chocolate mixture.
  • Pour into baking pans and bake for 20-25 minutes.
  • Cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes and then remove from pan.
