How to Make Dark Chocolate Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups granulated sugar, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder, and ¾ teaspoon salt.
- Add 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, and 1 cup boiling water to the dry ingredients. Mix on low speed until just combined.
- Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract on low speed until well incorporated. The batter will be thin.
- 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 completely in the pan before frosting (frosting recipe not included).
