Hershey’s Chocolate Chocolate Cake
I will never make any other chocolate cake again, it’s like I’ve found my chocolate cake soul mate. It’s a wonderful thing that Hershey’s already converted this recipe into several variations- a 1 layer cake, a 2 layer cake, a 3 layer cake, a bundt cake, and cupcakes.
I definitely see a hershey’s chocolate chocolate bundt cake in my near future.
I made this cake over a weekend when Ryan was gone at a racquetball tournament, which means I used gluten free flour and almost devoured the whole thing before he got home. This is my first layered cake of any kind- it turned out perfect and so divine that I felt like I could have ordered it from any swanky restaurant.
And I got to use my Grandma’s glass plate for the first time, so it was extra special.
I only made about 1 cup of frosting for this cake because I didn’t want to coat the sides. The frosting is very rich, forewarning, if you use all 2 cups you’ll probably want a glass of milk – anyone else thinking of “If you give a mouse a cookie”?
I made this recipe with Hershey’s Cocoa so I am not sure how another brand would compare. Be sure to check out the Hershey’s website here if you are wanting the other variations (1 layer, 3 layer, bundt, and cupcakes) of this recipe.
I <3 Hershey recipes! They always turn out great! I love their brownie recipe as well! Thanks for sharing with us….looks scrumptious! =)
I love Hershey’s recipes. I just bought their cook book with so many great recipes. Your cake looks great.
I love how you left it naked with not frosting on the side! Perfect for the picky husband who does’t like frosting!
Haha funny way to describe it as naked!
Definitely love me some Hersey’s chocolate! Looks amazing and can’t wait to try!

This was the best chocolate cake i ever made we loved it my mom ate the most
It is amazing!! Glad you both enjoyed it!
Any idea how many cupcakes this recipe will make?
The Hershey’s website said it makes about 30 regular cupcakes, but I haven’t tried myself.
Thanks!
Wow, two full cups of sugar?? That seems like so much to me.
I know – it is… maybe you could try reducing that!
How did you make it gluten free? Would LOVE to know how!! Cant wait to try this!!
gluten free all purpose flour! I use a local brand. Usually you can substitute GF flour as a 1 to 1 substitute.
