How to Make Delicious Chocolate Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a 9x9-inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 cup boiling water until smooth. Add in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the creamed butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons baking soda and 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder. Gradually add this to the batter along with 2 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until just combined and smooth. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool completely before frosting.
