Jet Howitzer’s Cake Recipe
Prep Time: 15-20 Minutes
Bake Time: 75 Minutes
Preheat oven to 350 F. Add fat to cake form to make sure it can come out easily. Now that we’ve got that done, let’s move on to the actual baking. (Be aware that the measurements in grams are in grams because the recipe is originally in german.)
Ingredients List:
500 grams of Flour
2 and 1/4 sticks of butter (Assuming quarter pound sticks)
4 eggs
Sugar with Vanilla powder
Pulverized chocolate. (I recommend a Milk Chocolate, but you can use pretty much whatever kind you like)
Directions:
Add softened butter to mixing bowl. Using a mixer set to medium speed begin to mutilate the butter. After a few moments add the eggs, and continue to beat the mixture. Increase mixer speed as is needed. When mixture is fairly smooth (Only a few lumps) add the sugar mix. Also add in a pinch of salt, a small dash of lemon, and a splash of rum. Mix until concoction is smooth.
Slowly add about a third to a half of the flour. As the mix grows thicker add some milk to smooth things out. After adding some milk add the rest of the flour, and then a bit more milk. This part is difficult to measure, as I usually do it by eye.
Once you have finished with this part of the process, and things are all well mixed, you should put about 3/4 of the mix into the form you’re using for the cake. Add the pulverized chocolate to the remaining cake batter, and mix until it is thoroughly mixed. Once this is done, add the chocolate batter to the cake, and swirl as desired.
Once it’s as swirled as you like, throw it in the oven for ABOUT 65 minutes. After that time has elapsed turn off the oven, and let it sit in there for ABOUT another ten minutes. Once that’s done you can take it out and allow it to cool off. Add some powdered sugar to the top, cut it up, and enjoy.
