Dark Chocolate Cake
Dark Chocolate Cake
1 ¾ cups flour 2 cups sugar ¾ cup cocoa 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 2 eggs 1 cup milk ½ cup vegetable oil 2 teaspoons vanilla 1 cup boiling water Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour two, 9-inch round layer cake pans. Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add the milk, oil, eggs and vanilla. Beat this mixture for about 2 minutes at medium speed. Stir in the boiling water. This batter will be very thin. Pour into the prepared pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until pick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes; remove from pans and cool completely before filling and covering with the frosting of your choice. A rich, deep chocolate buttercream would go well with this cake.
