  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Add eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined.
  4. Carefully stir in boiling water until the batter is smooth.
  5. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
