3 Divide the cake batter. Add 4 1/2 cups of batter to the savarin or tube
pan. Screw on the center fill insert. Add 2 cups of batter to the round
cake pan.
4 Place both pans in lower third of oven. Place a foil or parchment-lined
cookie sheet on the rack below to catch any batter overflow. Set timer
for 25 minutes. When time is up, test the bottom round pan by inserting
a toothpick or bamboo skewer into the center. It should come out either
clean or with a few moist crumbs clinging to it. (Wet batter means
it is not done.)
5 If done, remove this pan and reset timer for 20 more minutes for the
savarin or tube pan. Test for doneness on this pan by inserting a
toothpick or bamboo skewer in between one of the 4 small slits on the
top of the center fill insert. Remove and cool for 10 minutes.
6 Gently remove center fill insert by unscrewing. Invert onto pretty serving
platter. Invert lower round pan as well. Cool completely. Fill and frost
as desired.

Easy Moist Chocolate Cake
INGREDIENTS
2 1/2 cups sugar
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup cocoa powder
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt or 1 teaspoon table salt
3 large eggs
2 cups milk
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon butter vanilla extract
1/4 cup cold coffee
Flour in shaker, for dusting pans, or may use more cocoa if desired
METHOD
1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously spray either the savarin pan
or tube pan, round pan and the center fill insert with nonstick spray.
Sprinkle with the flour, starting with the center posts, then tilting and
twirling each pan to coat evenly with a very thin layer of flour. Gently tap
out excess flour.
2 Sift the first 6 items (dry ingredients) into a large bowl. Whisk to
combine evenly. Pour the remaining “wet” ingredients into the bowl
whisk for 1 minute.
This recipe can be made in one bowl! The batter is quite runny but it is
supposed to be that way. This is a very moist cake.
