Baking Instructions

1

Prepare the Oven and Pans

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

2

Mix Dry Ingredients

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

3

Combine Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and dark rum. Mix until smooth.

4

Combine Mixtures

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

5

Bake the Cake

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

6

Cool and Serve

Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove from pans and let them cool completely on a wire rack. Serve with whipped cream or your favorite frosting.
