This Chocolate cake is Spectacular!!!!!!!
1 cup (227g) milk (whole milk or 2% preferred) or evaporated milk
2 cups (241g) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
1 cup sourdough starter (discard or fed)
1 1/2 cups (298g) granulated sugar
1 cup (198g) vegetable oil
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 cup (64g) natural unsweetened cocoa powder (not Dutch process)
1 teaspoon espresso powder, optional
2 large eggs
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Combine milk, flour, and starter. Let rest 2 - 3 hours.
While dough is resting. Stir together sugar, oil, vanilla, salt, baking soda, cocoa powder, and instant espresso. Once mixed, add eggs one at a time until incorporated.
After the 2 -3 hours combine the flour mixture with the chocolate mixture. This can take awhile. I did it by hand the first time and did not mix it enough. I had white lumps in my cake. It was still good but didn't look great. The second time I used my mixer and it worked much better.
Pour batter into a 9 x 13 greased pan. Bake 30 - 50 minutes. Sometimes my cakes take longer. Not sure if it is the humid climate or what. Make sure your cake springs in the center and when tested with a toothpick, it should come out clean.
Frosting
2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 t vanilla
8 oz cream cheese softened
4 T butter softened
Combine all above frosting ingredients and pour over cooled cake.
ENJOY!!!!
