For the cake, follow the recipe here (http:...Hello! For the cake, follow the recipe here (http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2007/07/you-are-owed-chocolate-cake/) but halve the quantity. If you're baking the batter in two 8 inch pans, bake at 300F for about 40 minutes first. If it doesn't look done, increase the baking time. To make just one layer, try baking for 1 hour and increase baking time as necessary. <br /><br />Follow the recipe shown here for the frosting if you're making a two layer 8 inch cake. For a one-layer cake, halve the quantity.<br /><br />I hope this helps:)Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12898182290490490554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5770985568900887636.post-22891222456653047212013-07-15T21:06:22.794+08:002013-07-15T21:06:22.794+08:00hi amanda! good day! i really wanna try this recip...hi amanda! good day! i really wanna try this recipe but can you help me with the measurement for 8 inch cake pan.. and what about the temperature and baking time.. i hope you can help me, i wanna make this for my mom's birthday. thank you so much!!

Last week I made a ...Hey, this looks super yummy :)<br />Last week I made a chocolate and beetroot cake with a really rich chocolate frosting. Unfortunately I don't have a link or even a recipe for the frosting because I tend to improvise when it comes to frosting. <br />However I can tell you that I made a chocolate ganache, then I made a basic but stiff buttercream and I slowly beat the cooled ganache into the buttercream using an electric whisk. <br />I had to add both a bit of sugar and cream to help with the consistency but it turned out very nice :) <br />Hope this helps, also I LOVE the tip about under-baking the cake :) never thought of it before! <br />AbbieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5770985568900887636.post-4909136786926742382012-05-07T14:58:41.231+08:002012-05-07T14:58:41.231+08:00Looks promising!

Awesome idea, thank you! <br />Also, I will share a link with you even though it is not exactly what you asked for. It is actually completely different. But I just found it and loved the idea, and now all I can think about is using your cake recipe and that frosting together :D here it goes:<br />http://www.afarmgirlsdabbles.com/2012/04/19/dark-chocolate-cake-with-chile-chocolate-buttercream-2-years-a-giveaway/Danielahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05412714924830299443noreply@blogger.com
