Chocolate cake
Cakes
The recipe for the cake is adapted from <a href="http://www.scharffenberger.com/pairings-and-recipes/recipes/cakes/that-chocolate-cake/" target="_blank">That Chocolate Cake</a>, a recipe from <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Essence-Chocolate-Recipes-Baking-Cooking/dp/1401302386" target="_blank">Essence of Chocolate: Recipes for Baking and Cooking with Fine Chocolate </a>by Robert Steinberg and John Scharffenberger. The recipe for the frosting is adapted from <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/beattys-chocolate-cake-recipe.html" target="_blank">Beatty's Chocolate Cake</a>, a recipe from <a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/barefoot-contessa-at-home-ina-garten/1102548524?ean=9781400054343" target="_blank">Barefoot Contessa at Home</a> by the one and only Ina Garten.</div> A few notes: Don't over bake the cakes. I like them very moist and usually bring them out until they sort of set on the sides but still jiggle a bit in the middle. This makes them very moist, and somewhat a challenge to assemble and frost. But they taste so much better when not over-baked. You can also certainly use a stand or hand-held mixer to make this cake (especially the frosting).
