Instructions
- Pre-heat oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit, and set baking pan aside (jelly roll pan or 9x13)
Chocolate Cake
- In a large mixing bowl whisk together flour, sugar, and baking soda together and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, add butter, oil, cocoa and water and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and pour over flour mixture. Stir until blended.
- Add buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla. Mix well and pour into ungreased pan. Bake for about 20 minutes or until set.
Dulce de Leche Frosting
- Using a mixer, combine butter and Dulce de Leche together. Add powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time. Add vanilla. Add milk until desired consistency. Fold in the pecans and pour over warm cake.
Chocolate Frosting
- Melt 1/2 cup of butter in a small saucepan. Stir in 1/4 cup of cocoa powder and 6 tablespoons of milk. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Whisk in powdered sugar until smooth.
- Pour the frosting over the warm cake and spread evenly with a spatula.
- Sprinkle 1 cup of chopped pecans on top of the chocolate frosting.
Notes
- I have used different sized pans for this cake 15 X11, 9 X 13, and a jelly roll pan. The cooking time and thickness of the cake will vary slightly.
- If you like the flavor of cinnamon, add 1 teaspoon to the batter.
