How to Make Really Chocolate Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Fudge Frosting
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups granulated sugar, 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Add 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, ½ cup vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Beat on medium speed with an electric mixer for 2 minutes. Stir in 1 cup boiling water.
- Pour batter evenly into the prepared pans.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted into the center comes out almost clean and the top springs back when gently touched.
- Cool in pans for 10 minutes.
- Invert cakes onto wire racks to cool completely.
- Once cooled, frost with the decadent chocolate fudge frosting.
- **Chocolate Fudge Frosting:** In a large bowl, beat 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter until light and fluffy.
- Add ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder and beat until smooth.
- Gradually beat in 3 cups powdered sugar, ¼ cup milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, beating until smooth and creamy.
- Add more powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired spreading consistency (approximately 3 cups total).
- Frost the cooled cake layers generously.
