Classic Chocolate Cake Recipe

Recipe Description
This classic chocolate cake is an irresistible treat, perfect for any occasion. With a soft texture and rich chocolate flavor, it’s sure to impress your guests. Made with simple ingredients and an easy-to-follow technique, this cake guarantees success. Finish it off with a creamy frosting or whipped cream for an unforgettable taste and presentation.

Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set to 350°F (180°C) and grease two 8-inch (20 cm) round cake pans with butter and cocoa powder.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: Sift the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl. Stir well.
  3. Add wet ingredients: Incorporate the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla, then mix at medium speed until smooth.
  4. Blend in hot water: Gradually add boiling water and mix until fully combined.
  5. Bake: Divide the batter between the prepared pans and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Tips for a Perfect Cake

  • Substitutions: For a dairy-free version, replace milk with almond or coconut milk.
  • Moisture boost: Swap oil for melted butter or add a tablespoon of mayonnaise for extra richness.
  • Decoration: Top with ganache or cream cheese frosting for an elegant finish. Chocolate shavings and fresh fruit make great additions.

Serving & Storage Recommendations

  • Serve at room temperature to enhance the chocolate flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or up to 5 days in the refrigerator.
