Oh I love BCP. But it has to be made from scratch. That's why I never make it.
@Bridgegal In a pinch, mother used a yellow cake mix for the one layer, jello pudding for the middle, and made a chocolate glaze. I LOVE that and it is something you almost never see on a menu! That's sad!

Here ya go. This one has won awards. I learned the value of a Kitchen Aid mixer when I started making 6 of these every Christmas for gifts.
Chocolate Pound Cake
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

½ C cocoa
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp.Baking powder
1 tsp vanilla
Pinch salt
Greased and floured tube pan
Directions:
Cream butter and shortening in a mixer.
Slowly mix in sugar.
Add eggs one at a time, beating together.
Sift together sifted flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt.
Add dry ingredients alternately with milk beating each in.
HAND stir in vanilla.
Pour into well greased and floured tube pan.
Bake in middle of the oven at 350 degrees for 1 hr.
If the top is browning, cover with foil.
*Optional icing (I don't).
Heat 3 TBSP. cocoa,
6 TBSP. milk
1 stick butter to boiling point, stirring constantly.
Add one box confectioners sugar.
I have another, kind of one bowl chocolate cake that is done in a 9 x 13 with cocoa frosting. That one is fablious. It's SO good it will make your teeth itch.
Thank you for sharing.
It sounds like a yummy recipe. I have never had chocolate pound cake.
It has baking powder listed twice. Is one of those suppose to be baking soda???
Is the tube pan you use a bundt pan?
Also wondering what your 1 bowl chocolate cake is? LOL!!!
Still wondering about the baking powder listed twice in the recipe?
Is the tube pan a bundt pan?
Thanks

@Sooner - Oh, I just love BCP - haven't had it in years - probably before my Mom got sick and passed. I haven't even thought about it - Thanks for the reminder.

@turquoise blue - If she likes Red Velvet that is what I would go with - made from scratch, of course. Definitely cream cheese icing.
Or, make a coconut cake - they are so good.
Whatever you make, I'm sure she will love and realize you made it from your heart.

Can anybody help me? I’d like to bake my brand new daughter in law a birthday cake. I want to show her I care by doing this. I know she likes red velvet cake but I’m open to any really good cake recipe anybody knows of. I’d deeply appreciate it. Thank you.
