Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Pan

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease an 8-inch round cake pan or 9×9 square pan with oil or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients

  1. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Stir the dry ingredients with a whisk to ensure everything is well combined and to eliminate any lumps.

3. Combine the Wet Ingredients

  1. In a separate bowl, mix the milk, vegetable oil, vinegar, and vanilla extract.
  2. Stir until all the wet ingredients are thoroughly combined. The vinegar will help the cake rise, so don’t skip this step!

4. Mix the Batter

  1. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Use a whisk or a spatula to mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the cake dense.
  2. Gradually add the boiling water to the batter. This will make the batter thin, but don’t worry—this step ensures a moist, fluffy texture once baked.

5. Bake the Cake

  1. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.
  2. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  3. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
