Ingredients

Cake

  • 1/2 cup Butter softened
  • 1/2 cup White Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
  • 1 Egg large
  • 3/4 cup Flour
  • 1/4 cup Cocoa Powder
  • 1/2 cup Chocolate Chips

Fudge Frosting

Instructions

Cake

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8"x8" square baking pan. Then line a baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In a stand mixer, add softened butter and both sugars. Beat until pale and creamy.
  • Add the vanilla extract and the egg and beat until combined.
  • Stir in the flour and cocoa powder until there are no streaks of dry ingredients left.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Spoon batter into prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick stuck into the middle of the cake comes out clean. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool completely.

Fudge Frosting

  • Sift the powdered sugar and cocoa powder into a bowl and stir to combine.
  • Add the melted butter, whipping cream, and vanilla. Stir well. If it seems too thick to spread easily, gradually stir in 1-2 more tablespoons of whipping cream until it is the right consistency.
  • Spread frosting on cooled cake and then let set for about 15 minutes before you cut it.
