Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
  5. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and stir in powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth.
  9. Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Pour half of the fudge sauce over the cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top and pour the remaining fudge sauce over the top.
  10. Let the cake rest for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the fudge sauce to set.
  11. Slice and serve.
