Comment préparer My Grandma's Chocolate Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes.
- Grease and flour a 9-inch round baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the boiling water and oil until smooth batter forms.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting (see instructions below).
- Once the cake is completely cool, frost the top and sides.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the frosting to set before serving.
- **Frosting Instructions:**
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
- Remove from heat and stir in the cocoa powder, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
- If needed, add a tablespoon of milk at a time to reach desired consistency.
