🍫 Layered Chocolate Cake with Creamy Filling
📝 Ingredients
For the Cake:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups granulated sugar
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tsp baking powder
1½ tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup whole milk
½ cup vegetable oil (or melted butter)
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup boiling water (makes it extra moist!)
For the Creamy Filling (choose your style):
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1½ cups heavy whipping cream (whipped until stiff peaks)
For the Chocolate Frosting:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
3½ cups powdered sugar
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
½ tsp salt
2 tsp vanilla extract
¼ cup heavy cream (more as needed for spreading)
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Bake the Cake:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 9-inch round pans.
In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add milk, oil, eggs, and vanilla; mix until smooth.
Carefully stir in boiling water (batter will be thin — that’s good).
Divide evenly between pans and bake 30–35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool completely on wire racks.
2. Make the Creamy Filling:
Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
Fold in whipped cream gently until fluffy.
Chill until ready to use.
3. Make the Frosting:
Beat butter until creamy.
Add powdered sugar, cocoa, salt, and vanilla.
Slowly add heavy cream until smooth and spreadable.
4. Assemble the Cake:
Place one cake layer on a plate, spread with creamy filling.
Top with second cake layer.
Frost outside with chocolate frosting.
Chill 20 minutes before slicing for clean layers.
🍒 Variations
Black Forest Style: Add cherry filling between layers with the cream.
Cookies & Cream: Mix crushed Oreos into the creamy filling.
Nutty: Add chopped hazelnuts or pecans between layers.
👉 Would you like me to make this into a “Chocolate Dream Cake” style (where the creamy filling also goes on top with chocolate shavings) for an extra indulgent look?
