Hi I'm Marilyn Welcome back to My Left
Frying Pan. hey if you're new and you
just found us- this is not your regular
cooking show! And the reason is
because even though I have my degree in
foods and nutrition from the University
of British Columbia I was also an
alumnus of the second city comedy troupe
which makes me the funniest professional
home economist in the entire world (okay
according to me anyway) I'm also a
chocoholic and today on the show i'm
going to be making my go-to favorite
most delicious chocolate cake I've ever
made and you are going to love it! I've
been making this cake since my son was
first born and he's 27 years old and yes
I had him when I was 10 anyway. I was
lactose intolerant at the time. I'm no
longer lactose intolerant when i went
through menopause good things happened.
His dad is casein intolerant which
is the protein in the milk. So the
allergist told me do not give your son
any dairy and as a chocoholic how do you
make a chocolate cake without dairy?
butter like like all those things so I
did I'm I'm a genius and i created this
fabulous chocolate cake that has no
dairy- it's lactose free! okay so if you're
lactose free you can make it but
everybody I know makes it! it's like been
in all of my cookbooks. As a matter of
fact one of my friends in Winnipeg-
another professional home economist
Jennifer Dick- she sends me pictures
twice a year from her two sons birthday
cakes because she always uses this cake.
It's been a dinosaur it's been a whole
bunch of things. I've been making
this cake since Andrew was little. My
favorite one was when I made the
choo-choo train cake oh yeah okay just a
sidebar in a little note here- do not
serve a choo-choo train cake to little
kids because, well, unless you tell their
parents- because that black icing to make
you know Thomas the Tank train look
really black will it dyed your teeth so
when their parents came over they all
had black teeth but worst of all the
next day there was *other* evidence that
there was black and anyway never mind!
okay so this is my go to
cake you're going to thank me it is rich
moist delicious and it's easy to make.
This is a one bowler you just dump
everything in the one bowl -you're
welcome! OK it starts off with a little
bit of all-purpose flour and then i'm
using whole wheat flour because I
can't help myself - I love adding
whole wheat flour and then i'm using
natural cocoa powder and if you watched
a lot of stuff i talked about i talk
about natural and natural is really
important because the antioxidants that
are good for your heart are in natural
cocoa powder- once it's been Dutch
processed or processed you're getting
reduced two-thirds of the antioxidants.
So you want to keep as much as possible.
I like this brand and I also like the
fact that it's fair trade cocoa it's got
one and a half cups of sugar I know that
sounds like a lot but it's a cake and
it's a treat okay and we're serving this
treat for Easter or for whatever big
function comes up in the spring and it's
got some baking soda then because i'm
not using dairy i'm using a chocolate
soy beverage (you can't call anything
that isn't cow's milk milk in canada
because there's a license on it so it's
a "soy beverage" and that's the one i'm
using chocolate) but you could use almond
beverage if you wanted to it was
chocolate as long as nobody has a nut
allergy. I'm using pure vanilla extract.
I'm using 1 omega 3 egg. i'm using a some
canola oil. I'm using a little bit of
apple cider vinegar or you could use
lemon juice and i'm using once again one
of my favorite ingredients- baby food
prunes. You find them in the baby food
section. They're already pureed and
everything so all you do is dump
everything in a bowl and mix it. Oh
somebody pinch me!
I like to mix up the dry ingredients
before I put the liquid in and remember
I'm always talking about all our
wonderful giveaways well on April the
12th we're going to give away one of
these Breville hand mixers and whoever
came up with creating this must have
been some kind of I don't know engineer
because look at this thing it's got
these little rubber edges so that it
kind of scrapes the bowl and it doesn't
make a lot of noise it's a genius
invention. Now we're going to add the
liquid ingredients all at once and it's
done okay how easy was that? Now you will
already have preheated your oven to 350
degrees and the rack should be in the
middle of the oven and I've already
prepared my two round baking pans so
I've lightly oiled both of them. All
right so long stick and now these are
really old baking pans which I love and
we're going to divide this equally
between the two pans.
Just make sure you kind of go around the
edges to even them off and then into the
oven for I think it's about 30 minutes I
I kind of forget I got all excited about
the chocolate so just check the recipe
below! Alright so the cakes have been
baked and they're cooling on a wire rack
and they really they can't cool inside
of that cake pan because they'll get all
steamy and wet and in one of the ways i
get a nice flat surface is that the
cakes kind of sunk a little tiny bit as
you can see so I'm just going to fill
that up with icing but because I want a
flat surface to ice the bottom layer. I'm
just going to use a serrated knife and
just kind of even off that bottom layer
so that the top layer will stick on
better. Okay and oh I think I oh wow well
that's so good mm-hmm okay mm-hmm mmhmm
mm-hmm that is a fantastic cake! All
right the icing that I made (the recipes
down below) so just get the recipe and I
doubled it because I'm doing a great big
huge cake here and so we're just going
to give another little bit of a beat.
This should be really soft and fluffy if
yours isn't then add a little bit more
of the soy beverage and then it should
be nice and and creamy. okay and turn it
off and we'll get rid of the beaters.
Here all right now this this is what you
want to give your kids to have a little
lick for a treat okay so we'll save that
for or maybe we'll give that to my big
kid my big kid hey honey you want the
beaters come and get them okay?? Just his
hand there you go oh okay good all right
so here's how i ice a cake. And I'm a big
fan of yoyomax she's got a fantastic
youtube channel and so I know I'm
probably doing this all wrong but listen
you know let me know how I did? okay so I
like to anchor the cake and I put a
little blob of icing in the middle
and then I get pieces of parchment paper
and sort of stick it onto the the blob
of icing and the reason I'm doing that
is when I ice a cake then there's no
gobs of icing on the on the cake plate
okay so that hopefully will stick and
then you put this right on the center.
All right so that is sort of equal
around so that's pretty good and then
we're going to spoon on some of the
fantastic chocolate icing hold onto the
parchment paper and then just do sort of
a thin coating of the icing it doesn't
even have to go all the way to the edges
and I'm using one of these wonderful
spatulas. It's so easy- then you put on
your next layer and you want the big
side up so there won't be as many crumbs
and then here's the trick that I learned
and yoyo next you're gonna let me know
if I did this right? You put all of the
icing on the top like all of it okay so
there's a big blob of icing right on it
it's a mountain of chocolate yum okay
it's all on the top and then let's get
rid of this and then (let's all hope this
works you know it always works when
you're by yourself and as soon as you are you
know on YouTube it goes a bit weird) so then
you push it over to the edges so that
you can draw it down the edges alright?
So you're pushing it and pushing it and
then I'm going to sorry I'm not doing it
to camera but I'll so you drag some of
it down and go right to the edge and so
what you're doing (maybe I'm going to
turn this around so you can see more but
I'm left-handed) okay I'm going to do it
right handed so you're what you're doing
is you're pushing the icing down and
it's okay that you're hitting the
parchment paper because the parchment
paper is protecting (does the top of my
hair look any good??) anyway okay so right
down to the edge of the parchment.
Alright I gotta do it left-handed that
was too hard.
Just let all my neighbors know that I
was making chocolate cake okay and then you
can kind of swirl it around on the top
like that- comme ca- a beautiful easy
fantastic and now here's the best part
you should really let it set for about
five minutes but I'm in a hurry so you
very gently pull this off and you see
all of this would have been on the cake
plate and none of it is on the cake I
mean none of it's on the cake plate. It's
a little off center. No don't do that!
Anyway okay the best chocolate cake ever!
so my last little home economist tip is
that you know how you cut cake and you
get you know crumbs all everything??
here's the deal: so you slice through and
then when you pull it out you're going
to wipe off the knife with a damp clean
dish cloth and then you're going to do
another slice another cut and pull it
out oh and I forgot to get my little
spatula. So here's another little one all
right and then you're lifting out the
cake and joy of joy of course it didn't
work I think let's go to cut one more
come on stop bugging me look I'll see
all that I think that would have gone
smeared all over that other piece ok so
here we go okay look at that perfect
beautiful slice of yum okay so hey
listen remember it's April to 12 on
