Rich in chocolate flavour with a tender-moist crumb, and fluffy with just the right amount of sweetness. This easy cake recipe is great for birthdays or just any regular occasion.

• 2 cups white sugar
• 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
• ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
• 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup milk
• ½ cup vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup boiling water

Preheat oven to 175 degrees C. Grease and flour pans.

In a large bowl, stir together the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the eggs, milk, oil and vanilla, mix for 2 minutes on medium speed of mixer. Stir in the boiling water last. Batter will be thin. Pour evenly into the prepared pans.

Bake 30 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, until the cake tests done with a toothpick. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.

This is a very easy recipe but so delicious it can be enjoyed on any occasion, the beauty about it is that it has just the right amount of sweet and not too much because certain chocolate cakes usually come out too sweet and it can be over powering combined with other flavours.
