I've been looking for a good chocolate cake without coffee. This is exactly what I wanted. It's so chocolatey and has a great texture. Thank you!
This is the best chocolate cake ever & the only recipe I use ❤️
Love your channel. Thank you for being so incredibly generous in sharing your baking knowledge. I learned so much
I’m so glad🥰 of course!
I tried baking this no fuss, easy and simple moist chocolate cake recipe earlier today. Amazing, moist, soft, not too dense, just as you've said it would be! Thank you very much for sharing this recipe with us, also for the tips, truly, I find you generous and awesome for sharing realistic, doable and yummy recipes. More recipes to come!
Thank you!! I'm glad!!😊
Thank you so much for this recipe. I have tried so many recipes just to find the perfect one and yours is the BEST!! It’s so moist, rich & stay soft even after refrigerating it! I often find other cake recipes to be on the sweeter side but not this one, it’s just perfect! This is my fav chocolate cake ever 😭❤
Aww I'm so happy to hear that!! Thank you so much❤️
Your channel is soo underrated! I literally only follow your cake recipes and it always turns out amazing. I wish more people could know how amazing your channel is ♡♡
I tried this it's super delicious, my family loved it! This will be my go to chocolate cake from now on ☺️ I have been baking nonstop lately and I have also tried your sponge cake, all your recipes are truly delicious!... Thank you so much for sharing! I think I'm gonna start selling now. 😋
Thank you for trying them out and I am so glad you loved it!!😊
Thank you for sharing your baking skills with us. I really appreciate you teaching us to bake this cake. Love from Texas
Thank you!
Just baked this recipe, half recipe + 1 tsp coffee powder + 1/2 tsp of rum. It is perfect, the texture is exactly the same as shown in the video, flat cake, soft, small cake pores.... PERFECT! Thanks a lot...found my ultimate fave choco cake recipe ❤😊
I'm so glad🥰 Thank you for sharing the result!!
When do you put in the coffee? In the hot water?
I add coffee powder when adding the flour. So it goes in together with cake flour.
It looks so moist and delicious! Thank you for the recipe, def gonna try !
Thank you!
These cakes look lovely 😍😍😍 can't wait to try them. Thank you Aya and compliments of the Season !
My pleasure!! Hope you’ll love it!
Thank you Aya, I always love your recipes they are easy to follow and taste wonderful. This chocolate cake will be my next bake to thank my friends 😄 thank you once again ❣️
My pleasure 😊 Thank you for watching the videos! Hope you'll like this one too!
This is similar to many chocolate cakes I’ve made and seen, but I’m definitely curious to try your version!
The crumb looks beautiful!
Congratulations on the subscribers- you absolutely deserve it! You are one of the most gracious, and lovely people on CZcams and your recipes don’t disappoint.
BTW which piping tip is that? It looks really beautiful.
That's so sweet, thank you so much😌❤️
The French pastry tip I used this time is from Japan, the number 12-10; I looked online and it is very similar to the 1E tip which is much easier to get in most countries, I think!
I love listening to your voice. It's friendly and very inviting. Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge with us. The best part is listing both metric AND English measurements in the ingredients which is a definite plus. Many CZcams recipes don't. America doesn't use metrics, so again, thank you. Happy New Year.
I myself got the measurement issues countless times, it almost makes us feel like making pastries are more complicated and difficult unnecessarily! Thank you for appreciating those little details☺️
Happy New Year to you too!🌟
Amazing, I wish I could taste it right now❣️
This looks delicious!
Fácil de fazer e resultado fantástico
You’re an amazing baker, love your technique, tips and good editing too. Have a blessed Christmas 🎄

Love your creative recipes chef
Thank you!
This is an incredible cake! My new go too recipe , thank you my dear ❤❤❤
I'm glad!🥰 Thank you for sharing!
Your recipe is very similar to the one I developed, with a few differences. I use cake flour, 95g more oil (for an extra fudgy texture) and I use hot coffee instead of water to bloom the cocoa then mix it with the wet ingredients.
I typically use coffee for this type of cake, too. My all-time favorite chocolate cake is one made with unsweetened chocolate, sour cream, and coffee. It’s nice to have options with cocoa powder, too, though.
Hi could you write how much is the amount of oil it gets to be please
I want to add instant coffee granules but how much for this amount thank you 😊
Hi...can you share your recipe
Does the cake flour make a big difference I’ve been wondering
Just made this recipe for my birthday 😂😂 a really nice flavor and consistency, i just replaced the boiling watter with boiling milk...and added more chocolate.
Thank you❤
The best chocolate cake indeed ❤
Looks yum
That looks so delicious my dear illhave to try it
Looking delicious, thanks.
Most welcome 😊
Hotel quilty!!! Amazing thank you❤
Im glad!😊
Great video. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe.

Merci beaucoup, je viens de l'essayer😍😍😋
For any Aussie’s that are in pastry living with Aya and you’ve watched the part where buttermilk is made from vinegar in full fat moo juice it’s readily available in Australia in Woolies, Coles , Aldi , Harris Farms and IGA you will find it in the same place as the milk and it’s in a cardboard container but you can also still follow Aya’s recipe on how to make buttermilk ❤ Aussie gal is back in the kitchen rewatching this chocolate cake G.O.A.T as I’m going to make it for hubby’s birthday next weekend 🎉
Delicious ❤

Congrats for your 100K+ subs 🥳🥳🥳 you deserve it, you always give us great recipes in simple and easy way 💖
Thank you🤗🧡
Adorei 😊
i made this cake!! its so delicious i ended up cooking it for 35 minutes. my milk never curdled (i think its because i use apple cider vinegar) but it was the same end result nonetheless! and i used 1⅓ cup of cocoa instead of ⅔ and ⅙. i also subbed the hot water coffee and it was delicious!
I love the time-lapse footage. No one does that.
Looks sooooo delicious ,i this cake will be good for layers cake and covered with fondant?
Yum 😋. I’m going to make this 😊
When you say it’s the best chocolate cake , I totally agree..
I just finished decorating the cake, I followed the exact same!! And cake turned out really soft
I'm so excited to have it after i chill it in the fridge
Much love 💕
Thank you for trying it!!🤗
Leave it at room temperature for some time before eating if you want to enjoy a softer texture💓
Yess!! It was delicious!!! This would be my go to recipe thankyou so much 💕💕💕✨
@@harisatayyaba7730hi, if you don't mind me asking, did you bake the cake, decorate it and leave it in the fridge overnight? Then let it get to room temp before consuming? I want to do that for my son's bday but I'm worried the cake might be dry. I saw that it turned out great for you so I'm wondering if you did those following steps.
@@kimctt yeah I had the cake after keeping it in the fridge for 4 hours I think, but you can totally keep it over night and defrost it before eating, it's not dry at all, hope that helps :)
@@harisatayyaba7730 thank you so much! I'm going to do that. I appreciate your response.
Am so happy to come across your channel sister am so comfortable over there..
Adorei o vídeo
Looks yummie. Wanted to see how you decorate it🫣
Thank you! You can check it in the video named "how to frost a cake". I showed how I did it step-by-step!
@@PastryLivingwithAya thank you, I appreciate it. Will do.👍
Adorei o vídeo muito bom
Thank you so much for sharing! Just found your channel and I'm loving it 😊 Question: if I want to make a 6inch cake do I half the recipe?
Yes! You can do a half batch for a 6" cake. I'm glad you found my channel!😊
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Congratulations.,so deserving. Merry Christmas 🌲🧑🏻🎄
Thank you. Merry Christmas!🌲
I tried this cake, couldn't find cake flour so I used regular flour instead so sadly it didn't rise much, and used a ganache filling and maple syrup instead of the buttercream and itt is officially my favorite chocolate cake ever, I even made it twice in 1 week because my family and friends loved it so much, thank you ❤
I'm so glad to hear that😊 Thank you for sharing! You are their cake lady now😁💓
You can use 1 tsp of cornflour in 1 cup of ap flour to make cake flour just make sure to mix them before nicely..
Looks moist and delicious. If I want make a 9X13 sheet cake, what will be the proportion of the batter/ ingredients. Thanks
This looks delicious 😋 Would this cake sturdy to cover in fondant? Thank you for your content 😊
Thank you! Yes it is!
Amazing. Looks very delicious and very beautiful. If by any chance there is any piece left, I will be very happy to help. 🤤 I wish you and your loved ones a merry Christmas full of laughter and joy 👍👏🎄
Thank you😁 Merry Christmas to you too!!
I make a very similar recipe, but I add 1/2 cup yogurt and 1 cup of coffee and that improves this good recipe.
