Fluffy Skillet Double Chocolate Cake Recipe
Ingredients
Directions
- In a bowl, combine the eggs, sugar, oil, and vanilla extract.
- Whisk everything together with a wire whisk until well combined.
- Add the milk, then gradually whisk in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt.
- Continue to whisk until the batter is smooth.
- Once the batter is smooth, stir in the baking powder.
- Grease a non-stick skillet (with a lid) with butter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared skillet.
- Cook the cake over low heat for about 10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Ensure the lid stays on throughout the cooking process to allow the cake to steam.
- While the cake cools, prepare the frosting.
- Melt the chopped semi-sweet chocolate in a double boiler or microwave safe bowl.
- Once fully melted, stir in the heavy cream until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the frosting over the cooled cake and decorate with chocolate sprinkles.
