Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup Cocoa powder
• 1.5 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.75 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Milk
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cup Chopped pecans
• 1 cup Sweetened condensed milk
• 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Powdered sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add the butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined.
4. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
5. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
6. Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
7. In a small saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, and heavy cream. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate chips are melted and the mixture is smooth.
8. Stir in the chopped pecans.
9. Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of the pecan fudge mixture on top. Repeat with the remaining cake layers and pecan fudge mixture.
10. In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the top and sides of the cake.
11. Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour before serving.
12. Enjoy!
