Ingredients

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup boiling water

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, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk them together until well mixed.
Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes, until well blended.
Stir in the boiling water carefully; the batter will be thin. Make sure everything is combined.
Pour equal amounts of the batter into the prepared cake pans.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove from the oven and let the cakes cool in the pans for about 10 minutes. After that, turn the cakes out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Frost with your favorite chocolate frosting once the cakes are completely cool. Enjoy your homemade chocolate cake!
