Ingredients

• 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 0.75 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup boiling water
• 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup heavy cream

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans, or line them with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

Add the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix on medium speed until the batter is smooth and fully combined.

Step 4

Carefully stir in the boiling water. The batter will become thin, which is normal.

Step 5

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then turn the cakes out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

To make the chocolate ganache, heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.

Step 9

Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.

Step 10

Once the cakes are completely cool, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a generous amount of ganache over the top.

Step 11

Place the second cake layer on top and cover the entire cake with the remaining ganache, smoothing it with a spatula.

Step 12

Let the cake set at room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving. For cleaner slices, use a warm knife.
