🍫 THE CHOCOLATE CAKE WE MADE 🍫 We didn’t have any chocolate cake mix on hand, so I turned a white cake mix into a rich, chocolatey cake using what we had! Ingredients: • 1 box white cake mix • ½ cup + 2 tbsp Hershey’s cocoa powder • ½ cup + 2 tbsp white sugar • 1½ cups chocolate milk • 2 tsp instant coffee powder • ½ cup sour cream • 1 stick browned butter, cooled • 4 eggs • A good splash of vanilla extract • ½ cup Hershey’s chocolate chips Directions: Preheat your oven to 315°F. In a large bowl, combine the white cake mix, Hershey’s cocoa powder, white sugar, and chocolate chips. Mix the dry ingredients together until well combined. In a separate bowl, combine the 1½ cups of chocolate milk with the 2 teaspoons of instant coffee powder. Then add the chocolate milk mixture, sour cream, cooled browned butter, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix everything together until the batter is smooth and well combined. Divide the batter between two greased 9-inch aluminum round cake pans. Bake at 315°F for approximately 30–34 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean. Allow the cakes to cool completely before frosting. I layered and frosted the cake with the Hershey’s Chocolate Browned Butter Cream Cheese Frosting I shared a few days ago. 🍫🤎 Because the frosting contains cream cheese, keep the finished cake refrigerated or in a cool area. The frosting will soften if left at room temperature for too long. #chocolate #chocolatecake #hersheyschocolate #cake #moist
