How to Make Pistachio Mint Chocolate Chip Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Add milk, oil, vanilla extract, and mint extract to the dry ingredients. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  5. Gradually pour in the boiling water while mixing on low speed. The batter will be thin.
  6. Stir in the chopped pistachios and chocolate chips.
  7. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
  8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Frost and decorate as desired (optional).
