ingredients
- 1 (15 ounce) can Hersheys Chocolate Syrup
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (Plus more for dusting...)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1⁄2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1⁄2 cup butter
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
directions
- Preheat oven to 325.
- Cream butter and sugar in a medium bowl with a portable mixer or a stand mixer.
- Add eggs one at a time till incorporated.
- Add syrup and vanilla.
- Turn off mixer and stir in the flour and baking powder by hand (it's less messy this way -- )
- Pour batter into a lightly greased and floured 9 inch springform pan and bake for one hour and 15 minutes.
- Let cool and release cake from pan. Enjoy!
- Note: I always go for less time (one hour) for an extra-moist cake, but it's still good if you go for the full hour and 15. This can also be made in 2 8in. cake pans if you want a layer cake, but definitely decrease the baking time.

Great as is - not a big cake- family favorite. I tweet every time I always use 1 and 1/4flour. I’ve added cocoa powder, instant chocolate pudding, white chocolate chips - milk if I think it’s too thick... been told it’s the best anyone’s ever tasted. We prefer Hershey’s special dark syrup. Better and more appealing color. Always frost with buttercream icing.
