Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Chocolate Cake:
    • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
    • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
    • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
    • 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
    • 1 tsp salt
    • 2 cups granulated sugar
    • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1 cup whole milk
    • 1 cup hot water
    • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • For the Edible Cookie Dough Filling:
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 2 tbsp milk
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (heat-treated to make safe for eating)
    • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
  • For the Chocolate Ganache:
    • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
    • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  • Prepare the Chocolate Cake:
    • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
    • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
    • Add the vegetable oil, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
    • Gradually stir in the hot water until the batter is smooth (it will be thin).
    • Divide the batter between the two pans and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
    • Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Make the Edible Cookie Dough Filling:
    • In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
    • Add the milk and vanilla extract, then gradually stir in the heat-treated flour until combined.
    • Fold in the mini chocolate chips. Set aside in the refrigerator while the cake cools.
  • Make the Chocolate Ganache:
    • Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until it just begins to simmer, then pour it over the chocolate chips in a bowl. Let sit for 1 minute, then stir until smooth and glossy. Let the ganache cool until slightly thickened.
  • Assemble the Cake:
    • Place one layer of chocolate cake on a serving plate. Spread an even layer of edible cookie dough over the top.
    • Place the second cake layer on top and gently press down.
    • Pour the chocolate ganache over the top of the cake, letting it drip down the sides.
  • Serve and Enjoy:
    • Let the cake sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the ganache to set before slicing. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • To make the flour safe for eating, spread it on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes, then let it cool completely before using.
  • For an extra-decadent touch, top the cake with extra mini chocolate chips or cookie dough balls.
  • Store the cake in the fridge and bring it to room temperature before serving.
