I've done variations on the WASC (choc chips, belgian truffle creamer, coffee, etc) chocolate cake and they were wonderful! I'm looking though for the most chocolatey cake ever... I want to cover it in choc buttercream and choc ganache. I'm looking for something that's the chocolate lovers dream!

Any ideas?

I make a chocolate overload that is just to die for. It is 2 layers of dark chocolate devil's food with a layer of brownie in between, filled with dark chocolate sour cream ganache and iced in chocolate IMBC and then topped with more of the ganache.

hello prterrell.. would you share your chocolate overload.. sounds wonderful..

prterrell- would you would be willing to share your recipe? It sounds divine. You can PM me if you don't want to post the recipe here.

OK, let me wipe the drool from my chin. That sounds SO divine! I'm hoping you share your recipe with us chocolate lovers.

Whenever I am going for chocolate overload, I replace some of my liguid ingredient with brewed coffee. It really enhances the chocolate flavor, imho.

This recipe is incredible and so easy. It's called "Too Much Chocolate Cake." It's worth a shot...it's a family favorite of ours for sure!

luv2cake...do you make it in a bundt pan as the recipe states?

The first time I made it in a bundt pan, but I have used it a few times in regular cake pans that I later used in my stacked, decorated cakes. So it works either way!

the Hershey Cooca can has a recipe on it for the best ever chocolate cake and it is so good.

*drool*... I didn't think of baking a brownie layer!

prterrell.... has left the building. . ha!! please come back and please share this incredible recipe of yours..

I haven't tried the "too much CHocolate Cake" recipe, but I can second that Hershey's "Perfectly Chocloate" Chocolate cake is incredible!

Tell me more about the Hershey's version... I read a thread a while back where everyone was complaining about it sticking so badly...

Is it moist, gooey, and chocolate-syrupy?
Mmmmmmm

I've never had a problem with it sticking at all. I just grease my pans well with a mix of crisco and flour. There is a regular hershey's cocoa version and dark chocloate version that I havn't tried yet. I find that the Hershey's recipe also dosn't dry out like other scratch recipes that I have tried.

I like Hershey's Black Magic Cake; it uses hot coffee. Grease, flour and line your pans with parchement paper. Zero sticking issues. I love this one with vanilla butter cream, but I have made it with chocolate. Ganache over that would be impressive.

Sorry, I am no longer giving out new recipes as I am putting together a cookbook.

Can you tell me if your brownie layer was from a mix or scratch??

I also use the Hershey's recipe on the cocoa can. To avoid the sticking issue, just be sure to cool on a rack rather than in the pan. I also use it for my "Death by Chocolate" cake, filled with whipped ganache, covered in chocolate buttercream and THEN chocolate curls!

I made a 3-Layer cake consisting of 2 layers of WASC dark chocolate fudge cake using coffee as my liquid with a center layer of chocolate cheesecake, covered in chocolate amaretto ganache, surrounded by chocolate fudge pirouettes, topped with chocolate covered strawberries. Call the doctor!!! The pic is on page 2 in my gallery.

I love the Hershey's Classic one too, and Prterrell, I will be waiting for that cookbook of yours . LOL...just let me know when.

This is a really good chocolate cake too. This is my most requested flavor.

I love the Hersheys from the can too..delicious!

The hershey's chocolate cake (with coffee instead of boiling water) is my staple chocolate recipe as well. It is very moist and will be sticky if you forget to flour after greasing the pan.

I have done a brownie layer and I just used a box mix and baked in a 9x13 pan. after it cooled, I used the pan to cut out the correct size( I used a 8 inch round). hope that helps.

your welcome. I made a chocolate cake and put a layer of macsmoms chocolate truffle filling, then the brownie, then another layer of truffle filling, it is sooo good.....yummy

all of your recipes sound delicious. i will be trying all of these... since you all are so happy with what you make..
