topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups premium flour
  • 1 and 3/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1.5 tsp of baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 0.5 cups vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup hot water

Preparation:

  1. In a large bowl, beat together the flour, white and brown sugars, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder with a mixer on low speed until smooth. Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, vinegar, and vanilla extract. Increase the speed to medium and beat until smooth, about 2 minutes. Stir in the hot water and knead until the dough is smooth.
  2. Make three different desserts from this dough.
  3. Cake:

    Grease two 9-inch (22-cm) round cake pans with vegetable oil, line them with parchment paper, then grease the parchment paper and dust with flour. Divide the batter among the pans; tap them on the counter to release any air bubbles. Bake at 350°F (175°C) until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool in the pans for 15 minutes, then turn out onto wire racks to cool completely; remove the parchment paper.
  4. Pie:

    Line a 22x32cm (9x13in) baking pan with foil and grease it with vegetable oil. Pour the batter into the pan; tap it on the counter to release any air bubbles. Bake at 350°F (175°C) until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 40-45 minutes. Let cool completely in the pan.
  5. Cupcakes:

    Line 30-cup muffin tins with paper liners. Spoon the batter into the tins, filling them halfway. Tap the tins on the counter to release any air bubbles. Bake at 350°F (175°C) until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cupcake comes out clean, 20-25 minutes. Let cool in the tins for 5 minutes, then turn out onto wire racks to cool completely.
