# Detailed Preparation Steps:

Turn oven to 175°C and grease two 23 cm round pans. Then sprinkle them with flour so cakes don’t stick.

Put flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a big bowl. Whisk it all up good and even.

Crack eggs, pour in milk, oil, and vanilla. Use a mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes to mix it all together.
04 -
Slowly add the boiling water and stir until the batter is smooth with no lumps.
05 -
Split batter between the pans and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. Check doneness with a toothpick; it should come out clean.

Keep cakes in the pans for 10 minutes then move them to wire racks so they cool down completely.
# Helpful Tips:

For richer chocolate taste use dark cocoa powder. Make sure everything’s at room temp before starting. Top off with your favorite frosting or a dust of powdered sugar.
