I guess the reason that you have a cakey base while you mix the cocoa powder with oil, due to fire too strong or you did the mixing on fire too long, made the mixture became cook. You may just stir it first before make warm (maybe 1 mins on the fire will do).<br /><br />You may try this chocolate cake (6 or 8 inch): http://testedandtasted.blogspot.sg/2012/04/chocolate-fudge-cake.html<br /><br />However, if you want to bake for 9 inch cake, you may go to the original link (using 4 eggs):<br />http://auntyyochana.blogspot.sg/2008/01/chocolate-fudge-cake.html<br /><br />I wish you will have a succesful birthday cake for your son tomorrow :) Happy Baking and hope you enjoy it :)DGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12420436556920672758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466289198109477960.post-76768622197182080552013-01-10T15:45:19.173+08:002013-01-10T15:45:19.173+08:00I did this twice but both weren't successful. ...I did this twice but both weren't successful. The first time was underbaked which resulted in a super sticky bottom. And the second time, the oil and cocoa powder turned into a paste instead of a satin-smooth mixture! And incidentally both times the cocoa powder wasn't mixed in well with the oil. It was cakey at the base of the pot.<br /><br />And I have to rush this for son's bday tmr!!!! Argh!!!!

I’m so sorry to hear that it turn ...Hi Chilliqueen,<br />I’m so sorry to hear that it turn out dry n dense. Yes, what you described on the ribbon stage is correct. Changing in lower or medium speed, is just to stabilize the air bubbles trapped in the batter, in other words it may make good volume & soft crumb in the cake. Over mix the flour with the batter may cause the cake hardly rise and dry. You may just beat a while, don’t worry if you still see some flour in it, cause you still need to mix with the chocolate batter. You may stop mixing once the mixture well incorporated and look shiny. Please try again and hope to hear from you soon.

It's not that spongy & moist as seen on the video clip. I did follow the steps closely except when comes to "beating at medium speed until ribbon stage". Does ribbon stage means when u lift up the whisk, u are able to write the number "8" with the batter and it takes a while for the number to disappear? Hope to have your advise :)<br />ChilliqueenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466289198109477960.post-68865915181472791782011-07-13T15:40:22.207+08:002011-07-13T15:40:22.207+08:00Hi Jeannie,
Actually, this is quite common if the ...Hi Jeannie,<br />Actually, this is quite common if the cake rose uneven with the higher in the middle, most important the texture. If you use the cake for creaming, then is not a problem, you may just slice-off the mountain :), sometimes, I’m doing that too :)<br /><br />You may prevent it from rise higher in the middle by :<br />- preheat the oven at least 10 minutes before baking<br />- once you’ve poured the batter in the plan, wobble the batter using spatulla slightly to the side, leave the centre part batter slightly lower, as the cake bakes the middle and edges will meet and rise more evenly.<br /><br />Referring to the recipe, I also copied directly from the source. If you click on the source “FoodHouse8”, it will link you to youtube, which provide the same recipe. I had checked with the video, you are right, the quantity in the video not the same. However, if you noticed carefully, it seems that the lady used were in double recipes, look at the eggs part, and when they finished pouring the batter, seems that the batter means for 2 baking pans. Hope that this will clarify your doubts.
