Ingredients




1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 pinches salt
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup oil
2 eggs

Preparation

1 Preheat oven to 350 deg F. Grease a 9 inch cake tin. 2 Mix flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, sugar and vanilla extract in a bowl. 3 Add milk, oil and eggs. 4 Mix everything together until smooth, either by hand or by using an electric mixer at slow speed. If the batter is too runny you may add slightly more flour. 5 Transfer to bake tin and bake at 350 degrees until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, approximately 35 to 45 minutes. 6 Frost with chocolate frosting.

About


After the cake has cooled, slice the cake through the middle to make two layers (easier if the cake has been in the fridge).
