01 Chocolate cake
•
2 cups all-purpose flour
•
2 cups granulated sugar
•
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
•
2 teaspoons baking powder
•
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
•
1 teaspoon salt
•
1 cup buttermilk
•
1/2 cup vegetable oil
•
2 large eggs
•
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
•
1 cup boiling water
Ingredients:
For the frosting:
•
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
•
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
•
3 cups powdered sugar
•
1/3 cup milk
•
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
01 Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 9-inch round cake pans and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until well combined.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Then, slowly pour in the boiling water and mix until well combined.
Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans.
Bake the cakes in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
While the cakes are cooling, make the frosting. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and cocoa powder until smooth.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract, and mix until the frosting is smooth and creamy.
Once the cakes have cooled completely, place one cake layer on a plate or cake stand. Spread a layer of frosting over the top of the cake.
Place the second cake layer on top of the frosting, then spread a layer of frosting over the top of the second cake layer.
Decorate the cake as desired, then slice and serve.
