Cake Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour six 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 until well combined.
Incorporate Boiling Water
Stir in the boiling water until well combined. The batter will be thin.
Pour Into Pans
Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared cake pans.
Bake the Layers

Cool the Layers
Remove from the oven and let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, remove from the pans and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
