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.

Make the Frosting

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