When the cake comes out of the oven make sure to stick a toothpick in the middle to see if it is cooked enough. This cake can have a longer cook time depending on how much coco you put in. Make sure that it's cooled down before you start cutting and lathering on that rich, chocolate butter cream.
Here Are The Step By Step Directions…
How To Prepare:
-
Preheat oven to 350º F. Prepare two 9-inch cake pans by spraying with baking spray or buttering and lightly flouring.
-
Add flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, salt and espresso powder to a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk through to combine or, using your paddle attachment, stir through flour mixture until combined well.
-
Add milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla to flour mixture and mix together on medium speed until well combined. Reduce speed and carefully add boiling water to the cake batter. Beat on high speed for about 1 minute to add air to the batter.
-
Distribute cake batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until a toothpick or cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
-
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes, remove from the pan and cool completely.
-
Frost cake with Chocolate Buttercream Frosting.

I made this for my husband’s birthday last month and wasn’t impressed. It was good but not great.
Thank you for the recipe..
Too much trouble getting to the recipe and figuring out which writing is an ad and which is the real recipe………..
Yummy
Pain to figure out how to get your recipes, adds won’t go away, I’ve seen several that keep popping up the sweepstakes add.
God help me!
Thanks. Two suggestions: replace milk with buttermilk and hot water with hot coffee. Huge improvements in chocolate cake.
Yummmmmy
Hi
Can anyone tell me if it matters whether I use caster or granulated sugar?
Thanks in advance!
I opened your e-mail to your website and in looking at the recipe for chocolate cake, and another cake, I see no place to click on to print the recipe. I usually print them out to take ingredient list to the store so I can get those ingredients for that chocolate cake. Are you not allowing printing of your recipes? Thanks
