Cake and Chocolate Balls

Method

Preparation and Assembly

  1. 1

    Bake the Cake

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.

  3. 3

    Add Wet Ingredients

    Add eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix on medium speed for 2 minutes until smooth. Stir in boiling water until well combined.

  4. 4

    Bake the Cake

    Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool completely.

  5. 5

    Prepare Chocolate Balls

    In a saucepan, heat heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add chocolate chips, stirring until melted and smooth. Let cool slightly.

  6. 6

    Form Chocolate Balls

    Once the mixture is cool enough to handle, scoop out small portions and roll into balls. Roll the balls in chocolate sprinkles to coat. Place on a lined baking sheet and refrigerate until firm.

  7. 7

    Assemble the Cake

    Once the cake layers are completely cool, place one layer on a serving plate. Top with chocolate balls, then add the second layer of cake. Decorate the top with remaining chocolate balls and additional sprinkles.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Slice the cake and serve to enjoy the delightful combination of cake and chocolate balls.
