Step-by-Step Instructions to Make Decadent Chocolate Brigadeiro Cake

Step 1: Prepare the Chocolate Cake

  1. Preheat the Oven
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients
    • In a large mixing bowl, sift together 1 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 and 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 3/4 cup cocoa powder, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt. Whisk well to combine.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients
    • In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
    • Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture, mixing gently until just combined. Pour in 1 cup of boiling water and mix again. The batter will be thin, which is normal for this recipe.
  5. Bake the Cake
    • Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool completely in the pans before removing.
