This is my cousin, Lorraine's, recipe. She made this years ago when my husband, son & I were visiting and I asked for the recipe. I think of her every single time I make this cake! It is so good and moist. Oh, and it's really good with a scoop of vanilla ice cream (Bryers is our favorite) on top.

¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

2 eggs
1 cup milk
½ cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup boiling water

Categories     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 18

10 ounces all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
7 ounces sugar
7 ounces brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 ounce natural cocoa powder (Like Hershey's)
8 ounces unsalted butter (room temperature)
6 ounces coffee (or water)
2 large eggs
4 ounces buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 ounces unsalted butter
1 ounce natural cocoa powder (like Hershey's)
2 ounces buttermilk
16 ounces powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 375ºF and prepare your half sheet pan with cake goop or whatever pan release you like.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, soda, cinnamon, white and brown sugar, and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, milk, and vanilla and set aside.
  • In a saucepan, combine the cocoa powder, butter, and coffee over medium heat. Heat until the mixture begins to simmer, stirring ocassionally to prevent burning. Once it begins to boil, remove it from the heat.
  • Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture and mix until combined.
  • Add the chocolate mixture to the flour and milk mixture and mix until combined.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out from the center with just a few sticky crumbs.
  • While the cake is baking, prepare your glaze.
  • In a saucepan, combine the butter, cocoa, and the buttermilk. Whisk them together and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
  • Add the sugar, salt, and vanilla to the warm mixture and whisk until smooth.
  • Once the cake comes out of the oven, let it cool for 5 minutes, and then pour the chocolate glaze over the cake. The cake and frosting should both still be warm. The glaze soaks into the warm sheet cake making it super moist!
  • Serve the cake directly on the sheet pan. Store leftovers at room temperature in an air tight container.
