Ingredients Needed
To make this delicious Batman cake, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- ½ cup of light brown sugar
- 1/3 cup of granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup of applesauce
- 1 cup of buttermilk
- 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preparing the Cake
Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease an 8-inch round cake pan and set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Stir until everything is evenly combined and set aside.
In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla and applesauce and mix until fully combined.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until everything is just combined. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Enjoy!
Let the cake cool completely before serving. The cake is best served at room temperature. Enjoy your taste of Batman!
