Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate Cake Mix Recipe
Ingredients
This Ghirardelli dark chocolate cake mix recipe is a classic favorite for any occasion. To make this delectable treat, you will need the following ingredients:
- One 18.25-ounce package Ghirardelli dark chocolate cake mix
- 1 cup water
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs
Instructions
To make this delicious treat, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, water, oil, and eggs, and mix together until the batter is smooth. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Frosting
This cake is delicious on its own, but if you’d like to add a little extra indulgence, try adding a dark chocolate frosting. To make the frosting, melt 4 ounces of Ghirardelli dark baking chocolate in a double boiler. Once melted, stir in one cup of softened butter, ¾ cup of confectioners’ sugar, ¼ cup of cocoa powder, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Cool the frosting in the refrigerator for 15 minutes before spreading it evenly on the cooled cake.
Serving and Storage
This cake can be served either warm or cold. Serve it as is, or with a dollop of freshly whipped cream and a sprinkle of chopped nuts. To store, cover the cake and keep it in the refrigerator for up to five days.
