Ingredients

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

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until smooth. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Step 5

Slowly stir in the boiling water. The batter will be thin, but this is normal and contributes to the cake's moist texture.

Step 6

Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.

Step 9

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

Step 10

Once cooled, slice and serve as is or with your favorite frosting or toppings for added indulgence.
