Chocolate Cake

8.0

1 ¾ cups plain / all purpose flour

¾ cup cocoa powder (, unsweetened (Note 2))

1 ½ tsp baking powder

1 ½ tsp baking soda (bi-carb soda)

2 cups white sugar ((Note 1))

1 tsp salt

2 eggs ((~55-65g / 2 oz each))

1 cup milk ((low or full fat))

½ cup vegetable oil ((or canola))

2 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup boiling water

1 ½ batches Chocolate Buttercream Frosting ((slide scaler on recipe))

Preheat oven to 180C°/350°F (160°C fan). Read Note 4 regarding shelf positions.
Grease 2 x 22cm/9" cake pans with butter, then line the base. (Note 3 re: springform pans and other pan sizes).
Sift flour, cocoa, baking powder and baking soda into a large bowl. Add Sugar and salt. Whisk briefly to combine.
Add eggs, milk, oil and vanilla. Whisk well to combine until lump free - about 30 seconds.
Add boiling water and whisk to incorporate. The batter is VERY thin (see video).
Pour batter into cake pans.
Bake for 35 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. See Note 4 regarding cook time if pans are on different shelves.
Cool for 10 minutes, then turn out onto wire racks upside down (Note 5).
Cool completely before frosting. I frosted the cake with my Chocolate Buttercream Frosting (scale recipe up by 50%).
