Ingredients

Servings

• 1.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1.5 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Butter
• 1.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Milk
• 0.75 cup Boiling water
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, cream together butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with milk. Mix well after each addition.
5. Stir in boiling water until the batter is smooth. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pans.
6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove from pans and transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
7. For the frosting, beat powdered sugar and heavy cream together until smooth and creamy.
8. Once the cakes have cooled, spread a layer of frosting on top of one cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the top and sides of the cake.
9. Serve and enjoy!
