Making miniature Dairy Milk chocolate cakes can be a delightful and indulgent baking project. Here’s a step-by-step description:
Ingredients:
Dairy Milk chocolate bars (for melting and decorating)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup buttermilk
Instructions:
Prepare the Chocolate:
Start by melting Dairy Milk chocolate bars in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water (double boiler method) or in short bursts in the microwave, stirring until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a miniature cake pan or a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Prepare Dry Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
Cream Butter and Sugar:
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Add Eggs and Vanilla:
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and then mix in the vanilla extract until well combined.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Alternate adding the dry ingredients and buttermilk to the butter-sugar mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined after each addition, being careful not to overmix.
Add Melted Chocolate:
Pour in the melted Dairy Milk chocolate and fold it into the batter until evenly distributed.
Fill the Cake Pan:
Spoon the batter into the prepared miniature cake pan or cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake:
Place the cake pan in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes (adjusting for your specific pan size and oven), or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool:
Remove from the oven and allow the cakes to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Decorate:
Once cooled, you can decorate your miniature Dairy Milk chocolate cakes by melting additional Dairy Milk chocolate for drizzling over the top or using it to make small chocolate decorations. Let the chocolate set before serving.
Serve:
Serve these miniature cakes as individual treats, perfect for indulging in the rich, chocolatey goodness of Dairy Milk.
