Chocolatey Chocolate Cake

Chocolate Cake


Easy step by step video to show you how to make Chocolate Cake in your Instant Pot


chocolate, Chocolate, CHOCOLATE CAKE! After modification after modification of my chocolate cake recipe, I finally found the perfect combination for a moist, but not too dense, chocolatey, but not too sweet, chocolate cake. It’s the perfect cake that you can brag that you made in the Instant Pot. Assuming your cake isn’t all eaten up before the bragging can start 😛 Keep in mind that my cook times are for a 6″ diameter pan so the bigger (and thicker) your cake is, the longer it will take to cook in the middle. If you’re worried, you can always use a pan that has the hole in the middle (bundt pan).
