my go to cake when I need a no fail base for a chocolate cake.
Ingredients
  • *I use a blend of Dutch and regular Cocoa, Macey’s carries it* (Saco Premium)
  • 2 C Sugar
  • 1 c Boiling Water
  • 1 C Oil
  • 1 T Vanilla
  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 t Baking Soda
  • 2 ½ C Flour
  • ½ C Cocoa
  • ½ t Salt
  • 1 C Buttermilk
  • (In emergency can use ½ t Vinegar in regular milk instead of Buttermilk)
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease three 9-inch cake pans, or use a sheet pan I think it’s easier to feed a crowd using a sheet pan.
  2. Mix the sugar, oil, and eggs then alternately add the liquid and flour mixture.
  3. Bake at 350 for 25 min. Test for doneness by lightly touching the tops of the layers or inserting a toothpick. Cool the layers in the pans for 5 minutes, then turn them out onto racks. Or if you are using a sheet pan just keep in pan.
