Description

A delightful and portable dessert featuring layers of moist chocolate cake and creamy frosting, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chocolate frosting
  • Jar containers for layering

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.
  3. Add the wet ingredients: vegetable oil, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth. Pour batter into prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  4. Once cooled, crumble the cakes and layer the crumbs and chocolate frosting alternately in jar containers. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother batter. Store jars in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
