Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
-
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
-
Slowly stir in the boiling water. The batter will be thin, but this is normal and will result in a moist cake.
-
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
-
Remove the cakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
-
To Frost: For a simple frosting, dust the cooled cakes with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate. For a classic chocolate frosting, combine 1/2 cup softened butter, 2/3 cup cocoa powder, 3 cups powdered sugar, 1/3 cup milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy. Frost the cake once it has completely cooled.
