Cake Ingredients

Method

Cake Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oven and Pans

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

  2. 2

    Combine Dry Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Add Wet Ingredients

    Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix on medium speed for 2 minutes until smooth.

  4. 4

    Incorporate Boiling Water

    Carefully stir in the boiling water until the batter is well combined; the batter will be thin.

  5. 5

    Bake the Cakes

    Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  6. 6

    Cool the Cakes

    Remove the cakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
