A perfect fusion of rich, fudgy brownies and soft, cake-like texture, the Chocolate Brownie Cake is a delightful dessert that satisfies all your chocolate cravings.

Ingredients

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup cocoa powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until smooth and combined.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until the batter is smooth and well-combined.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it out evenly.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
  8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Add-ins: For an extra touch of decadence, you can mix in chocolate chips, nuts (like walnuts or pecans), or even swirl in peanut butter or caramel sauce.
  • Frosting: If you prefer a richer dessert, top your cake with a layer of chocolate ganache, whipped cream, or even a dusting of powdered sugar for an elegant finish.
  • Gluten-free: Swap the all-purpose flour for a gluten-free flour blend, ensuring the recipe remains gluten-free without sacrificing flavor.
  • Storage: Store any leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
  • Reheating: To reheat, simply place a slice in the microwave for 10-15 seconds or warm it in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for about 5-10 minutes.
