How to Make Better Than Sex Cake Iii
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the boiling water – the batter will be thin. This is key to the cake's moistness!
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before frosting. For best results, chill overnight.
- Frost with your favorite frosting (see notes for recommendations).
- Slice and serve, and prepare for compliments galore!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
