Prepare the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Incorporate Boiling Water
Carefully stir in the boiling water until the batter is smooth (the batter will be thin).
Bake the Cakes
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pans and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool the Cakes
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove from pans and transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
