Delicious Chocolate Cake Recipe

This chocolate cake recipe is a classic and a crowd-pleaser. Rich, moist, and dense, it's the perfect dessert for any occasion.

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups sugar
• ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• ½ cup vegetable oil
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup boiling water
• Chocolate chips or chopped nuts (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch cake pans.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
4. Pour in the boiling water and mix until everything is well combined. The batter will be thin.
5. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans and sprinkle chocolate chips or chopped nuts on top (if using).
6. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pans and placing the cakes on a wire rack to cool completely.
7. Once cooled, frost the cakes with your favorite frosting and serve!

Enjoy this decadent chocolate cake with a tall glass of milk or a scoop of ice cream for an extra special treat.
