Hi Karen! You have a couple options. You can use my chocolate cake recipe or use a modified box mix. I have details in the latter one on how to make a chocolate box mix.

Or do I need cocoa powder somewhere. This is my go to cake mix, but want chocolate cake this time with the raspberry

I use your recipe ALL the time!

Do you think it would be okay to use Cake flour to make the cake fluffier? Or no?

Thank you SO much!!

This is the best cake recipe I have found and it is always a hit whenever i make it, which is already several times.

Hi Shara! I’m so glad you liked it. You can definitely use a sweeter chocolate for the ganache or just make a standard butterceam 🙂

Made this for my Dad’s 60th birthday party. I used three 8 inch pans because I was making at my moms house and she didn’t have 6 inch pans so the cake layers weren’t thick enough to split. So i just put the raspberry filling between the cake layers and the chocolate frosting on the outside. Still very yummy just a little less impressive! My only problem with it is I thought the frosting was not sweet enough (too bitter but that could be different if I used a sweeter chocolate) and I guess I just prefer a fluffier, more traditional frosting.
