Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 2 squares unsweetened chocolate (2 ounces)
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 cup cake flour (regular flour ok too)
  • 1 teaspoon good vanilla
  • 1 cup cake flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk or sour milk (yes, sour milk no kidding!)
  • Recipe for Lemon Butter cream frosting under separate listing...see my page for instructions.
  • Equipment needed: Greased 8"x8" square baking pan, 1-1/2 qt sauce pan, one working stove at 350, one working stove top burner on low-medium heat,

Directions
  1. Grab that sauce pan, place on burner at low-medium heat.
  2. Melt butter and cut up chocolate in pan.
  3. Add water and sugar, stir till well combined.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool 10 minutes.
  5. Add vanilla and stir.
  6. Add egg and stir till well combined
  7. Sift flour and measure again for accuracy: then add all dry ingredients left: salt, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sift one more time.
  8. Alternately add flour mixture and buttermilk/sour milk alternatively.
  9. Beat vigorously by hand for one minute or until smooth.
  10. Pour into greased pan and bake for 30-35 minutes until toothpick comes out cleanly.
  11. Let cool on trivet on counter.
  12. Once cool, roughly 2 hours later - though I never wait that long, I spread cake with lemon or orange butter cream frosting (leaving it in the pan) - using just 1/2 of a normal recipe for butter cream.
  13. You can also simply dust with confectioner's sugar.
  14. Store any leftover's which normally won't last the night into the fridge depending upon the number of elves you may have in your home.
  15. Photo to follow the next time I make this great cake.
