HERSHEY’S COCOA CHOCOLATE CAKE

Homemade Hershey's Cocoa chocolate cake that is so easy to make. No need to go to the store to get cake mixes when you have a box of Hershey's cocoa at home along with other basic ingredients. I also show you how to make a one minute decadent chocolate frosting with semi-sweet chocolate chips. A delicious dessert in less than an hour.
Shopping List:
2 cups sugar
1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup Hershey's Special Dark 100% cocoa
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1 cup boiling water
Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 350
Grease and flour your cake pans
Whisk together the dry ingredients in one bowl.
Whisk together the wet ingredients in another bowl.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry and blend using a mixer for 2 minutes.
Pour into the cake pans and bake 30-35 minutes.
Let cool before frosting at least 2 hours, but preferable overnight.
Once cake is cooled completely and ready for frosting, make the frosting with the semi-sweet chips. Add chips to a microwave safe bowl and microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir then microwave in 30 second increments until smooth.
Frost the cake IMMEDIATELTY! or the frosting will harden.
Enjoy!

WOW! Looks so good. I have a story for you about Hersheys chocolate syrup. I used to see cans of Hersheys choco syrup in this ladies box at church. One day I asked her what she did with it. She said Mr. xx puts the cans of syrup in her box and then she makes brownies for him! It was so cute. I looked it up online and sure enough, the recipe was there. Tks chef!

Richard, very nice recipe, I can have on occassion( type 2 ), I like just an ice cold glass of milk with it, I'd like to see you do a recipe on one of those chocolate lava/volcano mini/individuals where the outside is regular cake & the inside is hot syrup like hershey's chocolate syrup. Late post, was not feeling well yesterday & went to bed early, but feel better today

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

I’ll look into it. Hope you feel better. Thanks

[@lasandralucas7314]

Love it. Like to know, can I use buttermilk instead of regular milk in the recipe? Thanks in advance.

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

Yes. Just know the acid in buttermilk will slightly change the flavor, making it lightly tangy. Thanks for watching.

[@TW-qz5nz]

I'd replace the water with coffee or coke for a coca cola cake.

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

Sounds good! Thanks so much for watching.

[@thoringrohl8963]

How do you sweeten the icing?

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

The sugar in the dry mix add sweetness, but since the chips are dark chocolate, there's minimal sweetness. Instead of the dark chocolate, you can also use mild chocolate chips, which adds the sweetness. Thanks so much for watching.
