This has been a family favorite for as long as I can remember. It was the first recipe that I made as a child. This cake is so moist and heavy, and has a heavenly chocolate smell. Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
2 cups sugar |
1/2 cup cocoa powder |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 cup vegetable oil |
1 cup buttermilk (can substitute 1 cup sweet milk plus 1 tsp baking soda) |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
2 eggs |
1 cup boiling water |
1 can your favorite frosting |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients (except frosting) in one mixing bowl adding boiling water last.
2. Pour into a greased and floured 9x13 inch pan.
3. Bake in a 375-degree oven for 30-35 minutes.
4. Frost when cool.
5. NOTE: This can also be baked in 2 (8 or 9 inch) round pans or 2 (8 inch) square pans.
6. It will also make about 32 cupcakes.
