Ultimate Snoop Dogg Chocolate Cake Recipe

Step 1

Before you begin, preheat your oven to 350°F.

Step 2

Begin making a chocolate cake by adding to your mixing bowl your flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix to combine.

Step 3

In a separate mixing bowl, add buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla. Mix to combine.

Step 4

Gently pour your wet mixture into your dry mixture, while mixing. Stir until combined.

Step 5

In a small saucepan, bring your water to a boil, once boiling, steadily pour your boiling water into your cake batter while stirring. Mix only until combined, set your cake batter aside for a minute.

Step 6

Take your cake pans, and lightly grease the bottom and sides. Next, take approximately 2-3 tsp of flour into the bottom of each pan. Tap the sides until the entire bottom has a light coating of flour, dup any extra.

Step 7

Pour your cake batter into your prepared pans. Bake at 350°F for 25-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow your cakes to cool to room temperature.

Step 8

Now, to make your chocolate frosting. In a mixing bowl, add your room temperature butter, and cocoa powder. Beat with your mixer until your butter becomes creamy and smooth. Add in confectioners’ sugar, whole milk, and pure vanilla. Stir until your frosting is smooth.

Step 9

If your frosting is too stiff or is slightly dry, add a little more milk. We would recommend adding one tablespoon of milk at a time so that you don’t add too much. Once you are happy with the consistency of your frosting, it is time to assemble your cake!

Step 10

When your cake has cooled to room temperature, and your frosting is prepared, you can begin assembling your cake. To assemble your cake, first, remove the bottom layer cake from your cake pan and place it onto your serving plate, or cake stand.

Step 11

Add frosting on top of your first layer of cake. Smooth it out so that your next layer will sit evenly. Add your second layer of cake, and then top it off with frosting. Add frosting to the entire side of your cake, in the top. Smooth it out, or texture it as desired.

Step 12

Decorate using chocolate sprinkles on the top while your frosting is still wet. You may also choose to decorate your cake using a piping bag, or by using other toppings such as chocolate chips, regular sprinkles, or chocolate shavings. After your cake has been decorated, you can store the cake, or serve it right away and enjoy.
