Ingredients

• 1 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup boiling water

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.
3. Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until the batter is smooth and well combined.
4. Gradually pour in the boiling water while mixing. The batter will be thin, which is normal.
5. Grease and flour your cake pans. Use 9-inch round pans for a layer cake or a 13x9-inch rectangular pan for a sheet cake.
6. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pans.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

After your cake has cooled, frost it with your favorite icing or ganache. Enjoy it plain or with a rich topping—this easy chocolate cake recipe is sure to please everyone.
