This is the dark chocolate cake recipe that You'll make Over And over again! It isn't overly sweet. It is that good with an intense chocolate flavor that will blow all other chocolate cake recipes away!

I read lots of recipes and the best one with 27 million views was by the stay at home chef. So, I made 2 simple changes to help cut sweetness even more and wallah! I think it tastes even better!

I needed one that wasn't overly sweet. So I wanted dark chocolate (aka adding more cocoa powder) to cut sweetness. I'm talking about the Special Dark cocoa powder!

If you need a cake that isn't super sweet, then this dark chocolate cake is for you! *adapted from The Stay At Home Chef.*

Dark Chocolate Cake Recipe:
Ingredients:
3 cups (360g) all purpose flour
3 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups special dark cocoa powder
1 tbsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
4 eggs
1 1/4 cup (300 ml) milk
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 1/2 cups lightly brewed coffee
1/2 cup oil (olive oil or vegetable oil will work)
2 tsp. vanilla extract

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Sift dry ingredients (except sugar) in a bowl together.
In separate bowl/measuring cup combine milk and lemon juice, set aside.
Combine sugar and oil in a mixer until well combined.
Add in the vanilla extract, and eggs one at a time, mixing well.
Alternate adding the flour, all the milk, more flour, all the coffee, the rest of the flour.

Spray your non stick pans (1 bundt pan, or 3-4 8 inch rounds. This recipe makes a lot so you can also half it if needed). Divide cake batter accordingly and bake for approximately 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes, then turn out the cakes and let them cool completely before frosting them.
