Baking Instructions

1

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.

2

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.

3

Combine Wet Ingredients

Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

4

Add Boiling Water

Carefully stir in the boiling water until the batter is smooth. It will be thin.

5

Bake the Cake

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

6

Cool and Serve

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
