Ingredients

• 1.75 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Boiling water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round baking pans. Line the bottoms with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Beat on medium speed with an electric mixer for 2 minutes until the batter is smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Carefully stir in the boiling water by hand. The batter will be thin, but this step ensures a moist and light cake.

Step 5

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting or serving.

Step 8

Optional: Frost with your favorite chocolate buttercream, sprinkle with powdered sugar, or serve as is for a luscious treat!
