Chocolate cake

Posted on January 15, 2024

Chocolate cake is a delicious and popular dessert enjoyed by many around the world. There are various recipes for chocolate cake, but a basic one typically includes ingredients such as flour, sugar, cocoa powder, eggs, butter, and baking soda or baking powder. Here’s a simple recipe for a classic chocolate cake:

Ingredients:

  • 1 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup boiling water

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Add eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix well until the batter is smooth.
  4. Stir in the boiling water. The batter will be thin, but that’s normal.
  5. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

You can also add frosting or ganache to enhance the flavor. Enjoy your homemade chocolate cake!
