Chocolate Sheet Cake
Report
My rich chocolate sheet cake comes together quick and easy with a whisk and one bowl. The glossy chocolate ganache makes it decadently delish!

Ingredients
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 cups brewed coffee
- 2/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, I used Ghirardelli
- 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 3 cups all purpose flour
ganache
- 6 ounces heavy cream
- 3 Tbsp corn syrup
- 12 ounces chocolate, chopped
- 1 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Spray your 9x13 pan with baking spray.
- In a large bowl whisk together the sugar, coffee, oil, cocoa powder, vinegar, vanilla and salt.
- Whisk in the baking soda, and then the flour. The batter will be thin.
- Turn the batter into your prepared pan and give it a rap on the counter to bring bubbles to the surface.
- Bake for 30 minutes. This cake bakes fast, so be careful not to over bake. The center will feel firm and a toothpick inserted in the center will come out without wet batter on it (moist crumbs are fine.) Put the cake on a rack to cool.
- After the cake has cooled for at least 30 minutes, make the ganache. Put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Scald the cream and corn syrup in a saucepan and then pour over the chocolate. Let sit for a few minutes, then stir to melt the chocolate and create the silky ganache. Stir in the vanilla.
- Pour the ganache over the warm cake and spread out with an offset spatula. Allow the ganache to set up before slicing.
- Leftover cake can be kept on the counter or refrigerated.
