Description:
Morty’s Amazing Chocolate Cake has become a favorite among friends for its rich flavor and moist texture. Originally inspired by a classic recipe, Morty has perfected this cake over the years to create a decadent dessert that is loved by all who try it.
Ingredients:
- 1 3/4 cups flour
- 2 cups sugar
- 3/4 cup cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup strong black coffee, cooled
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon vinegar
Instructions:
-
Preparation: Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit). Grease and line a large cake tin with parchment paper.
-
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Sifting helps to aerate the dry ingredients and ensure they mix evenly.
-
Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla essence, cooled strong black coffee, milk, and vinegar until well combined. The acidity of the vinegar reacts with the baking soda to help the cake rise.
-
Combine Mixtures: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients, whisking continuously until you have a smooth, thin batter. Ensure there are no lumps and the batter is well mixed.
-
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin, spreading it evenly. Place the tin in the preheated oven and bake for about 1 hour, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The baking time may vary slightly depending on your oven, so keep an eye on it towards the end.
-
Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the tin for 10-15 minutes. Then, transfer the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Tips for Success:
- Quality Ingredients: Use good quality cocoa powder and vanilla essence for the best flavor.
- Room Temperature: Ensure your eggs and milk are at room temperature before mixing to help the batter combine smoothly.
- Baking Time: Check the cake towards the end of baking to avoid overcooking. Every oven is different, so adjust the time accordingly.

Morty’s Amazing Chocolate Cake is delicious on its own or with a dollop of whipped cream and fresh berries. It’s perfect for birthdays, gatherings, or simply as a treat any time of the year. Enjoy the rich chocolate flavor and moist texture that make this cake a standout favorite!
