Cake Preparation

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 15x10-inch baking pan.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients

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

3. Add Wet Ingredients

Add the eggs, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until smooth.

4. Incorporate Boiling Water

Carefully stir in the boiling water until the batter is smooth and thin.

5. Bake the Cake

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

6. Cool the Cake

Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 15-20 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Frosting Preparation

7. Make the Frosting

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the cocoa powder until well combined.

8. Combine Ingredients

Remove the saucepan from the heat and slowly whisk in the powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.

9. Frost the Cake

Once the cake is completely cool, spread the frosting evenly over the top of the cake with a spatula.
