Swiss Chocolate Cake
SUBMITTED BY: Michelle Dolorfino
“Delicious chocolate layer cake that melts in your mouth.”
INGREDIENTS
1 3/4 cups sifted cake flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 1/4 cups evaporated milk
2 eggs
2 1/2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon red food coloring
DIRECTIONS
Sift together flour, baking powder, soda, salt, and sugar.
Stir butter just to soften, and add to flour mixture. Add 1 cup milk until all flour is dampened. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed, or 300 vigorous strokes by hand.
Add to the flour mixture eggs, vanilla, melted chocolate, food coloring, and remaining 1/4 cup milk. Beat 1 minute in mixer, or 150 strokes by hand. Line the bottoms of two 9 inch round cake pans with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the prepared pans.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 25 to 30 minutes. Cool.
Frost with Chocolate Torte Frosting when completely cooled.
The difference is in the processing of the cocoa. They have very different flavors.
Yes, you can substitute devils food for the swiss chocolate. It will have a different flavor, but hey, that is the reason we cook rather than order everything from the deli!!
they are similar but not the same.
