Red Wine Chocolate Cake
For The Cake
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar (preferably dark)
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups dry red wine (your secret ingredient!)

For The Glaze
1/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
8 oz semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 cup powdered sugar

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F / 180°C.

First, mix your dry ingredients. Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt
into a bowl. Mix until well-blended and set aside.

In a separate bowl, beat together butter (softened) and sugar until light and
fluffy. Add in the eggs and beat until well-blended. Add vanilla extract and
beat to blend. Beat in the dry ingredients in 3 sections on a low speed. Add in
the wine in 2 parts in between the dry ingredients. Beat until all ingredients
are well-blended.
