Directions
Triple Chocolate Mocha Cake, This is just as easy as any cake from a box and much more flavourful I needed to use up some pantry ingredients and this recipe is what I came up with The Beau bought some Hershey’s SPECIAL DARK Cocoa by mistake, he thought it was hot cocoa mix, otherwise it might not have been a product I would have ever purchased If you don’t have it you could probably substitute another dutch-processed cocoa but your results might not be quite the same as mine I made cupcakes so I could portion them out to freeze some and they were rich enough to not really need frosting but please frost as you like They came out as black as night, my co-workers asked what food colouring I added to get them like that, to which I happily replied None! The Beau said they were Too chocolatey and too moist so count yourself warned, lol The recipe made 24 cupcakes and would make two 8 round or square cakes, or a 9×13 Adjust your time slightly according to which units you’re baking , I halved the recipe and it made 48 mini-cupcakes I love the fact that this is a one-bowl recipe I opted to use regular cocoa in lieu of the dark, and used semi-sweet chocolate chip morsels in place of the hot fudge topping to get a lava type cake effect These are very moist and delicious
