Unable To Bake Runny Batter Recipes
Baking By keerthi7715 Updated 16 Jul 2018 , 10:09pm by JustOneMoreCake
I made a chocolate cake and recipe calls for buttermilk and oil which makes the batter liquidy,but when I bake it, they turn out rubbery or they become very dense and when I press it feels like soft boiled chocolate paste like texture and also they crack on top, it only happens with the runny batter recipes and thick batter recipe cakes are perfect and super fluffy,what could be the problem?
Perhaps it is your particular recipe. I've been making Hersey's Perfectly Chocolate chocolate cake for many, mamy years, at least 25, and it is a very thin batter made with boiling water. It always bakes very moist and delicious.
I second what Sandra said that it may be your recipe. I use How to Cake It Yo's Ultimate Chocolate Cake recipe (I use hot coffee instead of hot water) and it is a thin batter but it bakes up beautifully.
Has this same thing happened with a different recipe or only this one? I would try out different recipes to see what kind of results you get. Sometimes a recipe can just be bad.
I have to recommend my recipe: https://www.cakecentral.com/recipe/7445/the-original-wasc-cake-recipe It is a cross etween a very runny batter and a pound cake batter.
Is it all runny batter recipes or just that specific one? Perhaps you could post it and we can see what the issue might be. I know, for example, that I have trouble with recipes that call for reverse creaming. Now, this is my own failing and I can't figure out where I'm going wrong since it works for so many others. But they always come out rubbery or just weird. I fixed the problem by avoiding the method!
