Chocolate Cake - Give your family a joy

Overview

A classic cream cake, perfect for parties or birthdays. When I was a child, it was a very happy event to have a cake on my birthday, because I would only buy cakes on birthdays. Later, society and life continued to improve, so eating a piece of cake has become a very common thing. I have been baking for almost five years now, and I always feel happy every time I can eat the pastries I made; especially my husband is full of joy when eating and comments on me while eating. This chocolate cake was customized for my mother-in-law's 73rd birthday. It uses a small amount of sugar; this does not affect the taste of the cake, but makes it healthier for the family.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Separate the egg whites from the refrigerated eggs, and put the egg whites into an oil-free and water-free egg beating bowl for later use; put the egg yolks and 20 grams of fine sugar into the egg beating bowl.

   

2. 2 Beat egg yolks and caster sugar until evenly mixed, then add milk and salad oil.

   

3. 3 Continue to mix the egg yolks, salad oil, and milk evenly.

   

4. 4 Sift in cake flour and cocoa powder.

   

5. 5 Mix evenly with a spatula and set aside.

   

6. 6 Beat the egg whites at low speed until they are in a rough foam state, then add the fine sugar in two batches, and beat the egg whites until they become dry peaks; when the egg beater is lifted, the egg whites should form straight peaks.

   

7. 7 Fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the cocoa cake batter.

   

8. 8 Use a spatula to cut in half and mix from bottom to top.

   

9. 9 Then pour the mixed cocoa cake batter into the remaining egg whites.

   

10. 10 Continue to cut in half with a spatula and mix from bottom to top until evenly mixed.

    

11. 11 After the cake batter is mixed, pour it into an 8-inch grinder and shake it three times; this can remove large air bubbles in the cake batter.

    

12. 12 Place in a preheated oven at 160 degrees and bake on the middle rack at 160 degrees for 45-50 minutes.

    

13. 13 Once the cake is baked, take it out of the oven and wait for it to cool.

    

14. 14 Place a slab of chocolate on a cutting board and use a long knife to scrape out the chocolate shavings.

    

15. 15 Do not hold the scraped chocolate chips with your hands. Use a knife to scrape them up and place them in a bowl and refrigerate them for later use. If you hold the chocolate chips directly with your hands, they will melt because your hands are warm.

    

16. 16 Cut the cooled cake base into three slices.

    

17. 17 Add the icing sugar to the previously refrigerated whipped cream, take a piece of cake and place it on the tray; spread an appropriate amount of whipped cream and sprinkle a few chocolate beans.

    

18. 18 Apply an appropriate amount of whipped cream.

    

19. 19 Cover with the second piece of cake and continue to spread an appropriate amount of whipped cream; add a few chocolate beans and then spread a layer of whipped cream.

    

20. 20 Finally, add the third piece of cake. At this time, spread the whipped cream on the entire cake to smooth it.

    

21. 21 Use your favorite decorating tip to decorate in any pattern you like.

    

22. 22 Finish with sprinkles of chocolate shavings.

    

23. 23 Put it in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours before eating. The cream will be more delicious at this time.
