Looking for a delicious dessert? Enjoy this rich chocolate cake coated with crunchy cookie crumbs—a delightful treat.

all the stops chocolate cake

You can never have enough chocolate—in life or in a recipe! However, adding more chocolate to a recipe does not necessarily provide more chocolate flavor. The best way to increase chocolate flavor is to increase the other flavors present in chocolate. Chocolate contains subtle hints of coffee, vanilla, spice, and even smoke. By adding elements of these flavors to your recipe, such as the coffee in this cake, you make it more “chocolaty.”&nbsp;

Remove the creme filling from the cookies prior to crushing for a more chocolate on chocolate look. Cover as little or as much of the sides of the cake as you like.

We bet you’ve never tasted anything quite as delicious as this coconut cake. From the tender crumb to the sticky-sweet frosting, this coconut confection is made completely from scratch. Three perfectly moist, almond-and-vanilla-infused cake layers are brushed with a coconut-milk mixture, layered with an incredibly special frosting and sprinkled with toasted coconut flakes for a gorgeous end result. Don’t be intimidated by the boiled frosting—just when you think it’s not working, the smooth, luscious mixture will come together and you soon understand why it’s worth the effort. Ready to make the coconut cake of your dreams?

If you’d rather keep your frosting in the traditional buttercream family, here’s an excellent <a href="https://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/marshmallow-buttercream-frosting/544b55b2-da64-4117-95ef-bc267d94976c" target="_blank">Marshmallow Buttercream Frosting</a>.

If you fall for the boiled frosting in this recipe, you’ll want to try our <a href="https://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/swiss-meringue-buttercream/908c0b9b-631e-4a9f-a0ea-9de13330084b" target="_blank">Swiss Meringue Buttercream</a> next. It’s made with a similar method and is just as delightful!

Cool layer cakes in their pans on a cooling rack for 10 minutes. If you try to remove them from their pans sooner, they’ll be too warm and tender and might break apart. Then, flip each cake out of its pan onto the cooling rack. Allow cakes to cool completely before frosting.

Try using a turntable when decorating your cake. These nifty rotating cake stands are available at large craft stores and allow you to assemble your cake on a flat surface and turn the cake as you frost.

This stunning cake will be the center of attention at any Christmas gathering. Three layers of perfectly moist chocolate cake are filled with fluffy white frosting (with a secret ingredient!) and sparkling sugared cranberries. Only you’ll know how easy it is to make!

The “half-dressed” or thin layer of frosting on the outside of a cake allows the layers to show through. It’s impressive and easy!

Multitask the steps for this recipe—while the cranberries are cooling in the refrigerator, you can begin to bake the cake and then work in the step of sugaring berries while cake layers cool.

Sugaring the cranberries will go much quicker if you always use the same hand to pick up the wet cranberries while keeping the other hand dry to roll the berries in sugar.

Be sure to cool cake pans completely, then wash, dry, and spray with cooking spray before baking the second cake mix.

If you only have two 8-inch cake pans for this Rainbow Layer Cake recipe, bake the cakes in three batches instead.

To make sure cake layers bake up level, be sure to evenly divide the batter between the bowls when coloring.

For guaranteed easy unmolding, line each pan with parchment paper. Set one of the pans on the paper and trace a circle around the base with the tip of a sharp paring knife to create a round that fits inside the pan; repeat to make enough for all the layers.

To give your Rainbow Layer Cake a deeper red color, add a teaspoon or two of unsweetened baking cocoa to the red batter.

Make this Rainbow Layer Cake a party dessert and switch up the colored layers as requested by the birthday girl or boy.

We just can’t get enough French silk pie, which is why we couldn’t help ourselves—we had to create it anew, in cake form. Expect all the smooth texture, creaminess and rich chocolate taste of the original pie, but in a whole new format. This fudgy triple-layer cake is filled and frosted with chocolate Swiss meringue buttercream frosting, piped with whipped cream and crowned with chocolate curls, so it’s indulgent, impressive and sure to be the star of your next holiday or special occasion!

We tested the frosting recipe with an electric stand mixer. An electric hand mixer may also be used, but for the frosting, start on low and gradually increase speed, ensuring the mixer’s motor can handle it. The beating time may take a little longer.

If your frosting won’t come together or is too runny, place the bowl in the refrigerator, and leave it for 15 to 20 minutes or until slightly firm. Then, place bowl back on the mixer and continue to beat on high speed until frosting comes together into a smooth, thick and spreadable consistency.

To make chocolate curls, microwave a bittersweet baking chocolate bar 5 to 10 seconds or until it feels slightly warm. Pull a vegetable peeler across edge of bar using long strokes.

It’s important to use softened or room temperature butter. To soften butter, cut in small pieces, and leave out on your countertop for approximately 30 minutes. A faster method is to microwave butter in 5-second increments at Medium (50%), turning the butter frequently so it is softened but not melted.
