Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Boiling water
- 0.75 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix with an electric mixer or whisk until the batter is smooth and fully combined.
Slowly pour in the boiling water, stirring carefully to incorporate. The batter will be thin; this is normal and helps create a moist texture.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips gently with a spatula.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan before slicing and serving.
Optional: Dust with powdered sugar or serve with a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat!
