How to Make Chocolate Oatmeal Cake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, oats, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in the boiling water – the batter will be thin.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before frosting or serving.
