- Jo's Chocolate Cake - Depression Cake Recipe Celebrate Life not the Struggle - The Hillbilly Kitchen
This recipe was born in terribly hard times and has become a part of some of the greatest celebrations in our family. It is an incredibly rich, moist, soft chocolate cake that is welcome at the most joyous occasions and will ease those hard times. This is a recipe that you really must try.
Jo’s cake uses basic ingredients that most of us already have in our kitchens. There is nothing expensive or hard to find in it. This would be the perfect end to a Sunday dinner or any holiday feast. If you are looking for something different to take to your next church dinner or potluck you have found it.
Luke 6:38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
Remember to put God first 😊

Holding the baking powder until the end works because baking powder is activated by both moisture and heat. If it contacts the wet ingredients as soon as you add them it will start to work and produce gas, which you’ll beat out while you mix. If you add it at the end it doesn’t get as much mixing and should produce a lighter cake. Nice recipe!
That’s just what I was going to say. My grandmother taught me that when making pancakes. Too much mixing and you’ll “beat the air out of it” leaving you with flatter tough pancakes.
Thank you for explaining why it's better to incorporate the baking powder at the very end.
Thank you! I was hoping someone would explain that one.😊
Great insight, thank you!
Thanks for that
Oh hallelujah, I have a quite elderly friend who has been telling me for YEARS about an old family recipe for chocolate cake made with coffee that was the best in the world and she so mourned the loss of the recipe. This sounds just like what she has described (to the best of her memory). I am going to make this for her for Thanksgiving and see if it’s how she remembers it. Thank you so much. And thank you for your wise words at the end: helping others is the best gift you can receive.
your friend will love that so much❤️❤️❤️
These days I don't wait for a special time in the future, surprise her soon!
Did your friend like the cake?
I’d like to know if you made the cake, and did your friend enjoy it
You are an amazing person. You have no idea how much you have helped me when I wanted to give up. Thank you for everything you do. May God continue to bless you and keep you safe. I have often wanted to ask you things but I don't know how to contact you
❤️
Go to the about section. All ways to contact her. Praying for you Jayne
@Jayne Johnson, nah...... don't even think of giving up. Too much to do yet! 🤪🤷🏼♂️🤗🤔🤣
@Jayne Johnson I know how you feel! Hang in there sweetie, we're all in this boat together and here for ea other! Anytime, day or night. God Bless you!
@@diannasmith5695 it’s really cool to know someone somewhere is watching the same thing as I am at almost the exact same time.
❤😊
Wish I had a piece of Joe's cake now with a cup of coffee
I love you little girl and your recipes, stories, and love for God!
Your message today is such a timely gentle reminder for all of us to "Celebrate life, not the struggle." I'm excited to make Jo's cake for my family! 💜
Retelling your relative's Delaware flood story will be a good enough reason to bake & share this cake. It looks yummy.
Love these family story's! 👍
I can almost taste Jo 's cake. Can't wait for the next video for the icing recipe. God Bless you Becky
This cake looks delicious and I'll try it. Thanks for supporting and promoting Vanilla Feeds Tomorrow. Nothing gives me more hope for the future than when a young person sees a problem in his/her community, thinks 'I need to do something', and then comes up with a creative solution. That kid is tomorrow's leader and we need more like him. Thanks, Becky!
Thank you so much for this recipe! I baked this last night, it's hands down the best chocolate cake I've ever eaten! I baked in a 9x13 at 350 for 40 minutes. Absolutely delicious!😋
This cake looks so delicious! I can’t tell you how much my family loves chocolate cake. I’ll be here for the icing. Thank you Becky 😊
Becky you always post the Best Recipes. I swear I have made at least 90-95 of the ones you’ve posted. I’m always going back into my Special “Becky” Recipes I have saved in my notes on my iPhone. I just want to tell you that I pray🙏 that God Blesses you every day and I truly love you♥️
Thank you 🌹
Prayers for miss Jones
*This chocolate cake looks so good. I'm sure the taste is delicious* 😋
Wow!!! What a crazy cool family story! That alone makes me want to bake it!👏🏼🍰🍰🍰
Howdi Becky, I must say that you have once again introduced me to God. Not to mention you're great recipes. Praying for America and the world.
Oh my goodness!! Hello Miss Becky!! This looks sooo good!! Thank you for sharing this recipe with all of us!! May God continue to bless you, your family and your channel.❤️🙏🏻
Amen, Connie!
Blessings and peace, Becky. Thanks for sharing ‘Joe’s Chocolate Cake Recipe. ✝️💜
I just love you , never learned to cook until I found you. I love the way you share The Word. It is so inspiring . 💜💜💜
You are a blessing.❤ Your recipes bring me cozy comfort and joy☺ And they are so much fun to share.💖❤😊🍁🍂
Can't wait to try this cake, Ms Becky!
Your uncle's story about enjoying the cake on the counter in the midst of a flood is just golden! Talk about looking on the bright side!
And your advice at the end is wonderful and absolutely true. 💖 God bless you!
I'll be watching out for the icing video! 🎉
Years ago when the Fukushima earthquake happened and caused the tsunami I was living in Maui. Friend and I were out dancing and the alarms started going off and news flashes across the TVs and evacuate to higher ground. I invited those who were with me to my house up higher and said I'm making a cake who ever wants some.
Same cake...it seemed to calm those who were anxious down. Delicious and when the immediate threat surpassed they left with smiles. Chocolate cake can fix an array of things. 👏👍🙏
I'm giving Miss Jones my best 🙏
Can't wait to try this one 👍👍👍
Just have to tell you that I love your videos, you have helped me rebuild my Faith. I love the recipes too, and have had every one turn out wonderful, but my Faith has grown beyond a mustard seed. Thank you ❤️
Love makes most things taste good! And my mother's name was Jo! A bonus! Thank you for the biblical and spiritual reminders in all your videos! I really do need to hear them!
This Jo's Chocolate Cake recipe looks so delicious 😋 Ms. Becky.
I love chocolate cake
Mmmm Chocolate cake 🤠🖖
🙏for Ms Jones complete healing! That vanilla is very interesting and I want to place an order. Homemade chocolate cake and icing? Oh man!
I hope you do! I don't bake much and won't need vanilla anytime soon, but will donate to that kid's nonprofit. I will always support those who see a need in their community and work to fix it, never more so than when it's a young person.
I worked in Phillipsburg. NJ for most of my nursing career, lived on the Delaware all my life, and remember my mom telling me about that flood. I lived through quite a few floods myself. And thank you for the baking tip, my mom taught me that when I first started baking and it really does make a difference!
And thank you as always for your kindness and encouragement, I hope you realize how much you mean to so many people..God bless you 🙏❤
Becky the Lord really uses you. You are a special person. Lord bless you and your family
Thanks for sharing with us.
It is such a joy to watch your videos. Thank you for shining Jesus in everything you speak and do!

Hi Becky!
TFS, I will try the recipe for sure.
God Bless you always.
I just found your channel, nevermind the cake...your lesson in the end is so true! God bless you!!!
Bless you for providing this recipe. I enjoy your videos and your message too.
Thank you for your wonderful recipe. You are a blessing 🙏
Becky, your subtle humor is wonderful !! Now to make a cake.
Hi Mike how are you doing 😊
I lived on the Border of Phillipsburg NJ, in Easton PA for many years before moving to the Poconos. In 2007 we had a huge flood, the Forks of Delaware, where the Delaware and the Lehigh River converges were churning powerfully. Downtown Easton, along 611, the banks of the rivers overflowed so bad that we were going catfishing in the Larry Holmes Ringside Restaurant parking lot uphill and across the street from the River itself. The water was so muddy from the flood, that the catfish were loving it. My son caught a huge catfish that parking lot. Many eople were using boats to get around . We kept our wits about us, our home was uphill and not touched by the flood. Hearing you mention the place where we lived, and still visit because it's only 20 minutes south of whete we moved to was pretty neat. Your story about swimming to get the cake from the kitchen sounds like something we would do too. The cake looks so good, and that frosting looks so yummy. I'll be making it soon. I really enjoyed this video. God Bless!
I'm certainly looking forward to making your nice recipe.
Lovely story and good recipe.
Thank you ❤
Thank you for showing me my grandmothers cooking ! you do a fine job , who the hell ever needed hollywood
When I hit my goal I'm definitely going to have to make this cake just for me but as for right now maybe my church will like it ❤️ Thanks for another wonderful recipe!
Becky, thank you for sharing this yummy cake recipe.
This...I what I've been looking for!!! Thank you and may God bless you & your loved ones, Miss Becky...🇺🇸 😎👍☕
I always cut the sugar down to a couple of Tbles.!! Always works out for me. I do this for cookies, brownies, ect!!
We cut the sugar down too. We really don't notice th difference.

EXCELLENT cake! I just made it! It beats boxed cake mixes hands down! It's even better than devil's food cake! This recipe is DEFINITELY a keeper! Thanks for sharing. 😋
I love hearing about my family friends like Jo and your Aunt and how she used to bake. Makes me wish I was a child again with my family to hear stories in the kitchen.
God Bless you 🙏🥰

I made this cake tonight- this is the BEST chocolate cake ever! Thank you for sharing this recipe!
Thanks beautiful woman of God
Hi Charles how are you doing 😊
Oh, my goodness what they experienced! Fabulous cake recipe. Thank you so much.
I just made this yesterday. My family has raved over it saying it's the best homemade chocolate cake they've ever eaten. 😆 Thank you for the recipe!
This is the exact same recipe that I got from a friend, whose grandmother made and topped with peanut butter icing. The best chocolate cake ever! ❤️
Such an incredible family experience 🤗Our family homestead has the outlets on the ceiling light fixtures still!
YUM! MAKING!
Thank you, Becky! I baked this cake before and it is absolutely delicious. The recipe was given to me by an elderly lady about 30 years ago.
I had forgotten about it. I am glad you reminded me of it. I will call it Jo's cake from now on. The lady who gave it to me was from Texas, maybe she knew your aunt!?
My son likes a little cinnamon in it.
I think the coffee in it makes this cake so wonderful.
God bless you ❤️
Thank you for posting your traditional recipe-I will not only be making this, but I’ll also be adding, chocolate chips, and crushed pineapple (without the juice).
My Mom would swoop the tops of her cakes like that with a butter knife, too!!! Great memories!!!! Thanks for the recipe!!! Can't wait to learn the frosting! God Bless!
The back of a tablespoon works great.
@@stacey5925 great idea!
Chocolate cake...my favorite! Thank you!
Sending prayers for your friend Miss Jones! 🙏
Thanks Becky. Sounds good
Sending healing prayers to Miss Jones 🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️
Thanks! Prayers for Miss Jones
I’m so happy to find out about your chocolate cake. I’m going to make it for my husband birthday.
Bless your heart sweet friend 🙏❤️
I paused the video for a prayer for Miss Jones, that she has a “suddenly” complete healing, body, mind and spirit, from the top of her head, to the soles of her feet, be made whole (BMW 😉) in all ways, and also Shalom-nothing missing, nothing broken in her life.
To God be the glory! This recipe is tremendous....ready made cakes and pies in the supermarket are expensive here in STATEN ISLAND NY
My Nana was from Paris Tennessee and we had tons of green beans in our garden this year so when my husband asked me what we were going to do with them I suggested a recipe my Nana made when I was a little girl. I saw your video with the same ingredients and I laughed green beans and bacon ❤ my husband was hooked and I subscribed to your channel. Going to have to try this cake recipe .
Well, I’m having it for a midnight snack. Chocoliousness👍🏻🥰yum, sweet dreams.yummm…
