Ingredients

• 190 grams All-purpose flour
• 200 grams Granulated sugar
• 50 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 large Eggs
• 240 milliliters Whole milk
• 120 milliliters Vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
• 240 milliliters Boiling water
• 200 grams Dark chocolate (for ganache)
• 240 milliliters Heavy cream (for ganache)
• 1 tablespoon Butter (for greasing pans)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease two 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pans with butter. Line the bottoms with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to combine evenly.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until well combined. The batter will be thick at this stage.

Step 5

Slowly pour in the boiling water while stirring. Continue mixing until the batter is smooth and slightly thin in consistency.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Tap the pans lightly on the counter to remove any air bubbles.

Step 7

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

Step 8

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

Step 9

While the cakes cool, prepare the ganache by chopping the dark chocolate into small pieces and placing it in a heat-resistant bowl.

Step 10

Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer (do not let it boil). Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate.

Step 11

Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir gently until smooth and glossy. Allow the ganache to cool slightly to thicken.

Step 12

Once the cakes are completely cooled, spread a layer of ganache on top of one cake. Place the second cake on top and cover the entire cake with the remaining ganache.

Step 13

Let the cake set at room temperature for 30 minutes before slicing. Enjoy this rich and chocolatey creation!
