Triple Chocolate Cake is a rich and decadent dessert recipe loaded with dark chocolate for a sweet treat you are sure to love!

Most of the time I opt for an easy box mix cake, because frankly it is easy and pretty good if you eat it the same day. There is nothing quite like a rich and decadent chocolate homemade cake though! I have had lots of homemade chocolate cake over the years that lacks that rich chocolate flavor for some reason. I am not a fan of those to say the least. I was the chocolate flavor oozing out of the cake. This Triple Chocolate Cake recipe does not disappoint!

This Triple Chocolate Cake recipe starts out with an easy chocolate cake made with cocoa and dark chocolate chips for the ultimate chocolate flavor. It is finished off with a homemade chocolate buttercream that really drives home the decadent goodness!

The dark chocolate buttercream is ingeniously easy to make! Simply melt dark chocolate and butter together in a bowl and allow to harden in the refrigerator while the cake bakes and cools. When the cake is ready to be frosted, simply pull the bowl of chocolate and butter out of the refrigerator and beat it until light and fluffy using a hand mixer. Add in some powdered sugar and a little milk for the perfect consistency and you have the best dark chocolate buttercream frosting you will ever try!

To finish off this amazing Triple Chocolate Cake, add some chocolate shavings for good measure. At this point, can you really have too much chocolate?! At the very least, it adds a nice finishing touch.

This cake isn’t for the faint of heart. It is rich, sweet and oh so good. This is the perfect cake recipe for the chocolate lover in your life!
