Instructions
- Preheat Oven & Prep Pans
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or line with parchment paper. - Make the Cake Batter
In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add milk, oil, eggs, and vanilla; beat until smooth.
Carefully stir in boiling water—the batter will be thin, that’s okay! - Bake
Pour batter evenly into prepared pans.
Bake 30–35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool in pans 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely. - Prepare the Frosting
Beat butter until creamy.
Gradually add powdered sugar and cocoa powder.
Mix in salt, vanilla, and milk until smooth and spreadable. Adjust milk for desired consistency. - Assemble the Cake
Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread frosting evenly.
Top with second cake layer and frost the top and sides.
Decorate with chocolate shavings or whipped cream if desired. - Chill & Serve
Chill for 30 minutes to set frosting if desired.
Slice and enjoy the “heavenly” chocolatey goodness!
This cake is perfect for birthdays or any celebration—it’s soft, chocolaty, and rich without being too heavy.
