MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP CAKE RECIPE | SOUTHERN LIVING
Fresh mint leaves, not mint extract, make the flavor of this layer cake truly special. Mint Chocolate Chip Cake is a wonderful dessert to make in the summertime, when the mint plant in your garden has turned into a hedge, or when you can find big bunches of the fragrant herb for cheap at the farmers’ market. Because the flavor of the mint is so natural and subtle, we added it to the rich devil’s food-like cake layers and the fluffy buttercream frosting. The trick to extracting the most fresh mint flavor is to bruise the mint leaves by slapping them a few times between your hands. This helps the oils in the leaves come out more easily. Then, steep the mint sprigs in hot water (for the cake layers) and cook them in butter (for the frosting). The flavor of this cake can’t be beat. If you’re a fan of mint chocolate chip ice cream, this might become your new favorite dessert.

ULTIMATE CHOCOLATE CAKE, LINDT

Every baker should have a go-to chocolate cake in their recipe repertoire for those special occasions that require a sumptuous chocolate treat. This ridiculously rich and indulgent cake is magnificently moist thanks to the addition of the buttermilk. It really is the perfect recipe for a show stopping cake!

 

Chocolatier’s Tip

Get creative with the decorations for this cake; try using our subtly sweet Vanilla White Chocolate to make contrasting curls or arrange pieces of fresh fruit on top - raspberries and sliced strawberries work well and cut through the richness of the cake.

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/160 Fan/Gas 4. Grease and line 3 x 23cm/9 -inch round loose-bottomed sandwich tins with greaseproof paper. 2. In a medium bowl, sift the flour with the cocoa powder, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder and salt and set aside. 3. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the sugars with the butter on medium-high for about 1 minute until light and fluffy (you could do this by hand but it will take a little longer). 4. Reduce the speed to medium-low and pour in the melted chocolate in a slow and steady stream. Mix until combined. 5. Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until just combined. Add the vanilla extract. 6. Add the dry flour mix into butter mixture in 3 parts, alternating with buttermilk in 2 parts, beating well between each addition. 7. Divide the batter evenly between the tins and smooth over the top. 8. Bake in the centre of the oven for 35-40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of cakes comes out clean. 9. Leave to cool in the tins for 10 minutes before removing from the tins and transferring to wire racks to finish cooling completely. 10. Individually cover each cake with cling film and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. 11. Meanwhile make the buttercream: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter with icing sugar for about a minute on medium speed until combined. 12. Reduce the speed to medium-low and stream in melted chocolate until combined. Add the vanilla and increase speed to medium-high and beat for 5 minutes until very light and fluffy (you could do this by hand but it will take much longer). 13. To assemble the cake: remove the 3 cakes from the fridge and set onto a flat board. Trim (if needed) to ensure they are smooth and flat. 14. Place 1 round on a cake stand and spread with buttercream. Lay another cake round on top. Repeat spreading and layering before frosting the sides and top of the cake. 15. Gently arrange chocolate curls in the centre of the cake and serve.
