Steps to make Chocolate Pound Cake:
- Youtu.be/kSmENw547Mw
- Heat milk, instant coffee, and chocolate until fully melted and stir to combine. Set aside to cool.
- Using a hand mixer or simply a hand-whisk, cream the butter for 1 minute until fully-softened. Add sugar and beat until fluffy and lightened in color. Frequently scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl with a silicone spatula for even mix.
- Lightly beat the eggs in a separate bowl. Then add them into the butter mixture in 3 additions. Mix just until combined after every addition. If we add all eggs at once, both of these high-fat ingredients might not combine but end up separating.
- Add all of the dry ingredients. Make sure to sieve the flour, baking powder, and cocoa powder beforehand as they tend to clump. Mix until 90% combined.
- Add the melted chocolate. Mix just until combined. Do not overmix as it will develop the gluten too much and result in a tough cake.
- Transfer into a loaf pan that has been fully coated with butter. This will help unmold the cake easily.
- Spread up the batter to both ends of the pan. Pipe a line of softened butter along the center lengthwise. These steps are optional, but they will help create an evenly-centered crack.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 340°F (170°C) for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Run a spatula between the cake and the pan. Unmold the cake immediately after baking to prevent shrinking. Let cool on the cooling rack. With a sifter, garnish the top with icing sugar before slicing (optional).
Standard as far as cakes go. Unsalted Butter-Salt dries things out and brands can vary on salt content. Always bake with unsalted and then add salt as needed. Also, don't skimp with cheap butter- it is the base for the is cake. I have a dessert business & several clients asked for a chocolate pound cake for the holidays.
