Ingredients
- 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 1.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 3
Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes until well combined.
Step 4
Carefully stir in the boiling water until the batter is smooth. The batter will be thin, which is normal for this recipe.
Step 5
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
Step 7
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove them from the pans and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Frost with your favorite nut-free chocolate frosting or serve as is for a deliciously fudgy chocolate experience.
