CHOCOLATE POUND CAKE WITH FUDGE ICING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Grease and flour a 12-cup tube pan; set aside.
• In large bowl, beat butter, shortening, and sugar at medium speed with an electric mixer until very creamy.
• Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
• In another bowl, sift together flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt.
• Add flour mixture to butter mixture, alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture.
• Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake for 1 hour 10 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in the center of cake comes out clean.
• Note: You may have to bake your cake longer than the stated time, depending on your oven.
• Let cool in pan for 15 minutes.
• Invert onto a cooling rack and let cool completely.
• Place cake on a cake plate, ready to frost, before making fudge icing.
• Frost with fudge icing as soon as it reaches the proper spreading consistency.
• For the icing, in saucepan, combine sugar, milk, butter, cocoa and salt.
• Bring to a boil over medium heat.
• Let boil for 2 minutes.
• Remove from heat and add vanilla.
• Beat at high speed with an electric mixer for 6-8 minutes, or until frosting becomes creamy and reaches a spreadable consistency.
• If making icing on a rainy day, it may take longer to reach a spreadable consistency.
• If you overbeat icing, or it begins to harden, add a little hot water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until icing is spreadable again.

CHOCOLATE BROWNIE POUND CAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Butter three 8-inch round cake pans and dust them with cocoa powder.
• With an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar. Add in the eggs one by one until incorporated. Add the buttermilk and vanilla. Sift together the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Stir the dry mixture into the wet mixture until incorporated.
• Divide the batter equally among the prepared pans and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool the cakes on a rack for 10 minutes, then remove them from the pans and cool completely on the rack.
• For the vanilla Italian buttercream: With an electric mixer, beat the egg whites and 3/4 cup of the sugar to stiff peaks. Heat the remaining sugar and 1 1/4 cups water to 240 degrees F in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Pour the boiling syrup into the egg whites, and beat until cooled to room temperature, 8 to 10 minutes. Cube the butter and add it to the bowl slowly. Mix until fluffy. Beat in the vanilla until incorporated.
• To assemble the cake, coat the top of 1 cake round with some of the buttercream. Stack the next cake round and coat with some buttercream; repeat until you have 3 layers. Then frost the sides with the remaining buttercream.

CHOCOLATE FUDGE CAKE

Steps:

• For the fudge icing:
• 6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, minimum 70 percent cocoa solids
• 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
• 1 3/4 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• For the cake:
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and line the bottom of 2 (8-inch) cake pans.
• In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugars, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl or wide-necked measuring cup whisk together the eggs, sour cream and vanilla until blended. Using a standing or handheld electric mixer, beat together the melted butter and corn oil until just blended (you'll need another large bowl for this is using the hand mixer; the standing mixer comes with its own bowl), then beat in the water. Add the dry ingredients all at once and mix together on a slow speed. Add the egg mixture, and mix again until everything is blended and then pour into the prepared tins. And actually, you could easily do this manually; I just like my toys and find the stand mixer a comforting presence in itself.
• Bake the cakes for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a cake-tester comes out clean. Cool the cakes in their pans on a wire rack for 15 minutes, and then turn the cakes out on the rack to cool completely.
• For the icing:
• Melt the chocolate in the microwave - 2 to 3 minutes on medium should do it - or in a bowl sitting over a pan of simmering water, and let cool slightly.
• In another bowl beat the butter until it's soft and creamy (again, I use the stand mixer here) and then add the sifted confectioners' sugar and beat again until everything's light and fluffy. I know sifting is a pain, the 1 job in the kitchen I really hate, but you have to do it or the icing will be unsoothingly lumpy. Then gently add the vanilla and chocolate and mix together until everything is glossy and smooth.
• Sandwich the middle of the cake with about a quarter of the icing, and then ice the top and sides, too, spreading and smoothing with a rubber spatula.
