Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.75 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Boiling water
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 all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Step 3
Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Beat the mixture with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes until smooth and well combined.
Step 4
Carefully stir in the boiling water. The batter will be thin, but this is normal.
Step 5
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
Step 6
Bake the cakes in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer the cakes to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Once the cakes are completely cool, frost and decorate as desired. A cream cheese or chocolate buttercream frosting pairs beautifully with this cinnamon chocolate cake.
