Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup boiling water
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (for greasing pan)
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for dusting the pan)
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Generously grease a Bundt pan with 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Dust the pan with 1 tablespoon of flour, tapping out the excess to prevent sticking.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until well combined.

Step 5

Reduce the mixer speed to low and carefully add the boiling water. The batter will be thin, but this is normal.

Step 6

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared Bundt pan.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 15 minutes.

Step 9

Carefully invert the cake onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely.

Step 10

Once cool, dust the top with powdered sugar for garnish, if desired.

Step 11

Slice and serve with whipped cream, fresh berries, or enjoy it on its own!
