How to Make Easy Chocolate Buttermilk Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or one 10-inch bundt pan.
- Dust pans with cocoa powder for extra chocolate flavor.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide batter evenly between prepared pans.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes for 9-inch layers, or 40-45 minutes for a bundt cake, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once completely cool, frost with your favorite frosting (optional).
