Cake Ingredients
Method
Cake Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until combined.
Incorporate Boiling Water
Carefully stir in the boiling water. The batter will be thin, but this is normal.
Pour into Pans
Evenly distribute the batter between the prepared cake pans.
Bake the Cake
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool the Cakes
Once baked, remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
