A secret-ingredient chocolate cake guaranteed to be moist and delicious. Use your favorite frosting.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup Dutch-processed unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 ½ cups stout beer
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
- 1 ½ cups white sugar
- 1 cup butter
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 (4 ounce) bar dark chocolate, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease three 8-inch round cake pans and line bottoms with parchment paper.
Step 2
Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and baking powder into a large bowl.
Step 3
Combine stout, vanilla extract, and espresso powder in separate bowl and stir.
Step 4
Beat sugar and butter together in another bowl until creamy, scraping sides occasionally. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing after each addition. Beat in mayonnaise. Alternate adding the flour and stout mixtures, 1/3 at a time, beating after each addition. Fold in dark chocolate just until combined. Split batter between the 3 prepared pans and level out the tops.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the cakes comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Cool in the pans for 15 minutes, then run a knife around the edge and flip onto a cooling rack. Let cool completely.
