If glaze is too thick, add more water, one Tablespoon at a time. Pour the glaze over the cooled cake and spread it into an even layer. Allow the glaze to set, about 20 minutes, before cutting into squares.

BEST WACKY CAKE EVER WITH CHOCOLATE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• lightly spray a sqare cake pan (mine's 9x9) with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a mixing bowl, mix together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, and salt with a wisk, making sure it is blended together well.
• In a large measuring cup add the water, vanilla, oil, and vinegar, ans wisk to combine.
• Add wet ingredients to the dry and mix batter until blended together well.
• Use a spatula to scrape down the sides if necessary.
• Pour batter into cake pan, place in oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a knife comes out clean.
• Cool on a rack completely.
• For the glaze: in a small saucepan, bring sugar, margarine, milk, and cocoa to a boil.
• Stir frequently; then reduce heat to a simmer for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Remove from heat and stir for another 5 minutes.
• Add vanilla and almond, if using, stir, and immediately pour onto cake.
• The glaze will begin to dry really quickly, so if it doesn't cover the whole cake (mine usually does) spread the glaze to the edges quickly, before it dries.
• If you like, top with sprinkles, and let cool for a hour.

CHOCOLATE GLAZE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Combine the butter and chocolate in a saucepan over low heat and stir until melted. (Be careful not to overheat the chocolate as it could seize.) Alternatively, put the chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on medium for about 1 minute. Stir and continue to heat for about 15 seconds at a time, stirring between intervals, until the chocolate and butter are melted and smooth.
• Sift the confectioners' sugar into a small bowl.
• Stir the sifted confectioners' sugar into the melted butter and chocolate. Beat the mixture, adding small amounts of boiling water until thinned as desired. If you happen to find it too thin, add a little more powdered sugar. If too thick, add more hot water.
• Slowly drizzle the chocolate glaze from the pot or bowl over your cooled, finish baked good. If desired, use a spatula to evenly distribute. How long the glaze will take to harden will depend on both the temperature of the glaze and the room. Once cool, it will harden.

CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°. Line the bottom of two 8 or 9-inch cake pans with parchment paper, grease and flour the sides. (The parchment paper will make the cake come out much easier than just grease and flour).
• If you prefer to bake the cakes in 4 separate pans, see the notes at the bottom.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the hot coffee and cocoa together until smooth. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, add the sugar, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Using a whisk, blend and sift the ingredients together.
• Add the eggs, milk, oil, vanilla, and the cocoa mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix on low speed for 30 seconds until the dry ingredients are moist. Increase the speed to medium and beat for 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and beat for another minute. The batter will be thin.
• Pour the batter into the two prepared pans and place in the center of the preheated oven. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes for the 9 inch pans or 33 to 37 minutes for the 8 inch pans (a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes should come out clean).
• Let cool in the cake pans for 5 to 10 minutes then run a knife around the edge of the pans to loosen the cake from the pans. Invert the cakes onto a cooling rack and remove the parchment paper. (At this point if you re-invert the cakes onto another rack and let them cool with their tops up, they will retain more height and the tops of the cakes will not stick to the cooling rack.)
• To make the cream cheese frosting, combine the cream cheese and butter, and beat until soft and creamy.
• Add the powdered sugar and vanilla beat on low speed until the sugar is mixed in then beat on high speed until smooth, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Slice each layer of cake in half horizontally by using a cake leveler or by placing each layer of cake on a turntable and use a serrated knife to slice through the cake as you turn the turntable. This will give you 4 layers to fill and stack. To transfer each layer, use a thin plastic cutting board to slide under the layers.
• Put a dab of frosting on a cake plate and place a cake layer on top of the plate. Use 3/4 to 1 cup of frosting to spread between each layer of cake then use an off-set spatula or knife to ice the top and sides of the cake.
• Put a dab of frosting on a cake plate and place a cake layer on top of the plate. Use 3/4 to 1 cup of frosting to spread between each layer of cake then use an off-set spatula or knife to ice the top and sides of the cake.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350ºF.

• Put the cake pans on cooling racks and cool for 15 to 20 minutes before removing the cakes from the pans to cool completely.
• Allow to cool completely before frosting.
