Prep Time 20 minutes mins
Cook Time 30 minutes mins
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water
Begin by gathering all the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans.
In a large bowl, combine sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla to the dry ingredients and mix for 2 minutes on medium speed using an electric mixer.
Next, stir in the boiling water. The batter will be quite thin.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pans.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy!
