🍫 Ultimate Chocolate Cake 🤩

Rich, moist, and irresistibly chocolaty — this cake is the ultimate treat for every chocolate lover! With layers of soft sponge and creamy frosting, every bite is pure happiness.

🧁 Ingredients

For the Cake:
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar
• ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 cup milk
• ½ cup vegetable oil
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup boiling water

For the Frosting:
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 3 ½ cups powdered sugar
• ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• ½ cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract



🍰 Instructions

1️⃣ Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 9-inch round cake pans.

2️⃣ Mix dry ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

3️⃣ Add wet ingredients:
Add milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed until the batter is smooth and glossy.

4️⃣ Incorporate hot water:
Gently stir in the boiling water — the batter will be thin, but that’s what makes the cake extra moist and tender.

5️⃣ Bake:
Divide the batter evenly among the pans. Bake for 30–35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

6️⃣ Cool:
Allow the cakes to cool in their pans for about 10 minutes, then carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

7️⃣ Prepare the frosting:
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter until light and fluffy. Add powdered sugar, cocoa powder, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Mix until the frosting is creamy and spreadable.

8️⃣ Assemble the cake:
Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a generous layer of frosting, then place the second layer on top and cover the entire cake with the remaining frosting.

9️⃣ Serve and enjoy:
Slice your masterpiece and savor the rich, velvety flavor — a true chocolate dream come to life! 😍



✨ Tip: Add chocolate curls, berries, or a drizzle of melted chocolate on top for a stunning finish.
