Chocolate Cake

 For the cake

Combine in a large  bowl

  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 3/4 cups  flour
  • 3/4 cup cocoa power
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
Once mixed add in
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla 
Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes then add
  • 1 cup boiling water
Batter will be thin

Pour batter into two prepared pans.  This is a very sticky batter and you really need to butter and flour it or cut parchment on the bottom.

Bake for 30-35 minutes.  More for a single cake pan, less for cupcakes.

Frost with chocolate frosting
