2 cups sugar
1 ¾ cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
¾ cup Hershey's Cocoa
1 ½ tsp baking powder
1 ½ tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup milk
½ cup vegetable oil
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup boiling water
1
Heat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans.
2
Stir together sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl. Add eggs, milk, oil and vanilla; beat on medium speed of mixer 2 minutes. Stir in boiling water (batter will be thin).
3
Pour batter into prepared pans. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans. Cool completely.
4
After removing from pans, cover cakes with plastic wrap to seal in moisture. Let cakes cool completely. (Optional: When ready to ice, cut around the perimeter of the cake, so the edges are not tough. Then brush excess crumbs from the cake and ice.)
