Orange Mocha Chocolate Cake Recipes

CHOCOLATE ORANGE MOCHA CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F or 180C and line a styrofoam cake pan with parchment paper
• In a bowl, combine Chocolate cake mix with Vanilla Extract, Orange Extract, Ground Coffee Beans, Brown Sugar, Orange Zest, Orange Juice, Yogurt, Vegetable Oil, and Buttermilk. Mix everything with a spatula to make a smooth Cake batter.
• Pour this into a cake pan. Bake for 30 minutes at 350F or 180 C or until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.Once the Chocolate cake is baked, get it out of the oven and cool it down.
• Melt Dark Chocolate with butter in a double boiler. Keep stirring at regular intervals so that the chocolate doesn't get burned. Once the chocolate is smooth and lump-free, get it off in a separate bowl.Combine the melted dark chocolate with whipped cream, using a handheld mixer or stand mixer. Beat until you get a smooth and creamy Chocolate ganache ready. Now slather it over the baked and cooled cake. Even it out using an offset spatula.
• For Orange whipped cream frosting, combine Whipping cream with 1 drop of orange gel food color, using a handheld mixer or stand mixer, until you get stiff peaks. Take it up in a piping bag, snip the edge and do the frosting over the cake. If you want, you can even add a nozzle into your piping bag and do the frosting over your chocolate cake.
• Top the cake with orange rinds. Orange Rinds are basically, the skin of Orange cut into thin juliennes. This will give an edge to your Cake decoration. To make Orange Rinds, peel an orange, and then chop up thin slices of the skin. It should be long and it should be thin. Keep an orange slice in the center of your Cake. Top that with melted chocolate and do some frosting on it. Sprinkle some Orange zest and ground coffee beans over your Chocolate Orange Mocha Cake and then cut into slices and serve!

ORANGE MOCHA CHOCOLATE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
• In large bowl, mix all of the dry ingredients
• Add the wet ingredients and mix well (I use a hand whisker - this is easy to mix together and doesn't need electric beaters). DO NOT ADD the CHOCOLATE CHIPS YET
• Coat a 10 inch cast iron skillet (or 9x9 baking dish) lightly with oil
• Pour the batter into your skillet or baking dish
• Top with the chocolate chips and bake 28-30 minutes or until done (the center will be a little softer than the edges; that's ok, but you don't want it liquidy!)
• (Optional) Add sprinkles that fit your occasion, let cool some (or completely) and serve. It's really good served warm!
• Enjoy!
