How to Make Easy Chocolate Sauce Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x9 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder, 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda, ¾ teaspoon salt.
- Add the wet ingredients: ½ cup buttermilk, ½ cup vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine ½ cup packed brown sugar and ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Sprinkle the brown sugar-cocoa mixture evenly over the batter.
- Carefully pour 1 cup of boiling water over the top of the cake batter. Do not stir.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let cool for 10 minutes before serving warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
