Chocolate Butter Cake

Dough

  • 1/4 cup warm whole milk (about 100 F)
  • 1 1/2 tsp. instant yeast
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 3 Tbsp. cocoa powder
  • 1 cup plus 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 6 Tbsp. unsalted butter, at room temperature

Topping

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 2 oz cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 2 Tbsp. light corn syrup
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 Tbsp. Better Bowls Natural Chocolate Pudding
  • 2 Tbsp. confectioners’ sugar

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 200 F and place a rack in the lower third. Once the oven reaches temperature, turn it off. Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, leaving an overhang on opposite sides. Spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. To make the dough: In bowl of a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, combine the milk and yeast. Beat on low speed to dissolve the yeast. Add the sugar, eggs, vanilla, salt, flour, and cocoa powder and beat on low until everything is well combined. Cut the butter into 6 pieces, and with the mixer on medium-low speed, add the butter one piece at a time (waiting until one is incorporated to add the next). Continue until all of the butter is incorporated, then allow the batter to continue mixing for 5 minutes.
  3. Spray a medium bowl with nonstick cooking spray. Transfer the dough to this bowl and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Place the bowl in the warm oven, and let rise until it doubles in size, about 30 minutes. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Set aside.
  4. Preheat oven to 350 F.
  5. To make the topping: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, combine the granulated sugar, butter, and cream cheese. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes (scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary). With the mixer on low, mix in the corn syrup, egg, and vanilla until incorporated. Stir in the flour and pudding mix just until incorporated. Dollop the topping over the cake batter then use an offset spatula to spread into an even layer completely covering the cake.
  6. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the edges of the cake turn golden, and the topping just jiggles slightly in the center when the pan is shaken (the topping around the outside should be mostly set). Transfer the pan to a wire rack and allow the cake to cool for at least 3 hours. Use the foil “handles” to lift the cake from the pan. Dust with the confectioners’ sugar before slicing and serving.
