Recipe
Makes one 4-layer chocolate fudge cake
Serves 12-16
Ingredients
Cake
2 ¼ cups (295 g) cake & pastry flour
1 cup (120 g) Dutch process cocoa powder
1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
1 ½ tsp (4.5 g) baking powder
1 tsp (5 g) baking soda
½ tsp (2.5 g) salt
1 cup (200 g) packed light brown sugar
1 ½ cups (375 mL) buttermilk
½ cup (125 mL) vegetable oil
¼ cup (60 mL) strong coffee
4 large eggs
1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla extract
Fudge Frosting
¾ cup (175 g) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
4 oz (120 g) bittersweet chocolate, chopped
½ cup (60 g) cocoa powder, sifted
3 cups (390 g) icing sugar, sifted
1 cup (250 mL) full-fat sour cream
1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla extract
½ tsp (2.5 g) salt
Directions
1. For the cake, preheat the oven to 350 F (180 C). Grease four 8-inch (20 cm) cake pans, dust with flour, tapping out any excess and line the bottom of each pan with parchment paper.
2. Sift the flour, cocoa, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a large mixing bowl using electric beaters or into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Stir in the brown sugar.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, oil, coffee, eggs and vanilla. Add this all at once to the dry mixture and mix first on low speed (using electric beaters, if not using a stand mixer) until blended, then increase the speed to medium and beat for a minute until smooth (the batter will be fluid). Pour this into the prepared pans and bake for about 30 minutes, until a tester inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean. Cool the cakes in the pans for 30 minutes, then turn out to cool completely.
4. For the frosting, melt the butter and chocolate in a metal bowl placed over an inch (25 mm) of barely simmering water, stirring until melted. Set this aside to a cool a little, but it should still be a lukewarm to use.
5. Using electric beaters or in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the melted chocolate & butter with the cocoa powder and half of the icing sugar on medium speed until smooth. Add the sour cream, vanilla and salt and beat in. Add the remaining icing sugar and beat on medium speed until smooth and a spreadable consistency. If the frosting seems too soft at this point, just let it sit for a bit, then beat again, but avoid increasing the speed any higher than medium - this will make the frosting fluffy and light, but no longer fudgy.
6. Place a cake layer (parchment peeled off) on a cake plate. Dollop frosting onto this and spread to the edges in a level layer. Top this with a second cake layer and repeat with the frosting and remaining two cake layers. Use the remaining frosting to cover the top and sides of the cake. Chill the cake until ready to serve.
The cake will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Made my first ever cake today using this recipe to celebrate my daughters end of chemotherapy. Turned out fantastic !
Is it 1.5 tsp of baking powder or 2.5 tsp. Cause she says 2.5 but its written 1.5
God bless her!
@@mbhatti001 1.5 tsp
@@mbhatti001 2.5 tsp
I’m always amazed at how Anna can bake everything and anything without creating a mess in her kitchen. 😍

I made this cake over the weekend and it's a handsdown recipe!!! All my guests love it and i had to make 1 more for my family to enjoy! So chocolatey and rich! And what is more important is it's not sweet! Just so right amount balance of chocolate and sweetness! Now i have found the right choco frosting!!! Thank you so much Anna!
I decided to try this recipe in a two layer cake 9 inch pans, and it worked out wonderfully. I can’t wait to taste. I’ve been searching for the best chocolate recipe for so long! This look like I’ve found it. Thank you!!

I love the taste of sour cream in chocolate frosting. It gives it a little zing that is out of this world 🍫
We think so too!
Can I use buttermilk instead of sour cream for the frosting?
@@monicapastran3489 No, use heavy cream instead :)
@@raaziatabassum Thanks for the tip! I too prefer NOT to use sour cream!

Hi mam this cake looks so delicious and tasty what can I use instead of eggs. Thank you so much
The type of life that allows us to bake 4 pans simultaneously!!!
Anna's kitchen is life's goal post!!
I want a kitchen like that so bad because I actually cook a lot everyday so I would use it not just for looks!
It looks yummy 😋. Going to make this cake but can i use all purpose flour instead?
شكرا حدا علي الكيك الرائع👍👍
It came out perfect, easy and fast. No advanced technique is needed to do it and it is quick to bake. It is fluffy and rich in flavor.
Recommended for use in cakes with filling 💯
*use the cups measurements
Love this channel

Yes it does!
Your free flowimg attitiude is amazing ....it is a flair of confidence and individuality....that inspires me becoz whatever recipe i bake bringing my own personality is really important ....U r so inspiring for me ;))))
Thank you for your kind words Anya!
Hey Anna, what make of oven do you use?
Great recipe btw👍😊
I just made a chocolate cake with fudge frosting two days ago just out of the blue. Same almost exact cake recipe, I’m a real fan of oil in my chocolate cake, and I made a very thick ganache frosting. I’m going to try this fudge frosting next time though. 🥰👍☕️
You'll really like it, we promise!
Oh Yum with Anna Olson oh Anna I know I will. EVERYthing you make and I’ve made is the best. You taught me how to make puff pastry and croissants from your videos. I did all the recipes from that show...and I followed your almond paste recipe. I can’t even thank you enough I can’t 😘🥰 Happy Holidays ! xo
Did u add hot coffee??
I randomly got a notification for this video from this channel I have never heard of in life
My favorite chocolate cake😋
That's amazing to hear, thank you!
HI Anna,
A good friend recommended me to your channel so I am not only new to your amazing channel but also new to baking.
If i do not have a heavyweight beater but only a hand held whisk, can i whisk the wet ingredients first then fold in the dry ingredients instead please?
Thanking you in advance for your (or any other kind soul who can share the expert advice please) kind advice... 🙏🏻🙂
Hi Anna, can we also use all-purpose flour for this ? Will the results be same ?
Can the uncooked cake batter be left for some rime before baking? I don’t have space for 4 pans in my oven at once.
Would the delayed baking affect the rise?
Thank you so much! Please tell me the best substitute for Sour Cream?
Other than creme fraiche.. as neither are easily available here. Can I use Heavy cream?? 😬
Chocolatey goodness❤
You've got that right!
I have baked several of your recipes which all turned out beautifully and I love this cake. I was looking for an alternative christmas cake recipe to take to a friends party and I think this is it! I've just watched your holiday treats episode on Food Network UK in which you demonstrated three types of ice box cookie. One made to resemble croissant, one using the same dough only grated, one standard sandwich cookie and a chocolate snowflake. I would love to bake these for Christmas and wondered if you could let me know where I could find the recipe as I haven't had any success in finding it and unfortunately the You Tube video on the Food Network website is only available to residents of Canada. Yours hopefully Kx 🎄
triple layer is good enough. I like the frosting.
Why not one more layer?
@@ohyum I agree if is celebratory, why not?
Anna when I visited Sweden recently the hotel was served breakfast some different kind breads never tasted anywhere in World it was delicious and that good can u put out some viedeos
Hi Chef Anna I’m planning to make this on my birthday but Dutch process cocoa powder is so hard to find. Is it possible to just use semisweet chocolate or a regular cocoa powder instead? Please Chef I need your help. Thank you so much 😊
Thank yummy 😋
Hi Anna,
I have a lot of natural cocoa powder that I would like to make use of. Could you tell me how I can use it in this recipe and what I need to change to make this cake?
Thank you !
Anna true Scandinavian baking beauty
You can use gess oven or electric??
Looks very delicious. But I cut the top of every layer. So that it is more equal
use cake strips for an even rise
Yeah, the cake layers looked very domed.
Can the vegetable oil be replaced with something else?
Mmmm, chocolate cake! 😋
The ultimate recipe! :)
hi Ana...can I bake this cake on two 8" inches pan....than cut the layers in four after baking?
الله تجننننننن شكراً آنا 🥰💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛
And can I leave this frosted cake outside for a few hours..? Or do I have to refrigerate??
Will the frosting melt or soften..?
Hi Anna , can to tell me what could be the reason for the top of my cake having cracks after baking ? And how can I correct it?
yum
Mam instead of buttermilk can we alzo use orfinary milk?
Hello I'm from the Philippines,is it recommended that buttermilk is cold? Not room temperature? Thanks
Can i use all purpose flour for this?
Please advice if. It's OK to use all purpose flour instead...?
Just curious, could you use this cake batter to make cupcakes and just ice the top of the cupcakes? Looking for way to portion control, but want a tasty chocolate cake
Oh Anna... any cake that has more than 2 layers gets my attention.... Your fudge cake would make me swoon....
It was designed specifically for that purpose! :)
Hi
Can you please tell me the replacement for buttermilk?
Can u substitute the oil for unsalted melted butter?
I’ve been a fan for a year now and this is awesome I’ve only made 4 of your recipes the reasons that i didn’t do all of them I wish I could the reasons is even though they’re so tasty theres just too much surgery and I don’t have piping pans and don’t have round pans especially spring and I’m not a professional I just do things like cookies cakes mousse noodles muffins pizza and others
