Ghirardelli Decadent Chocolate Cake
2 cups sugar
1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup Ghirardelli Dutch-Process Cocoa Powder
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup milk
3/4 cup unsalted butter - softened
3 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup boiling water
Preheat oven to 350°. Grease the bottoms of two 8 or 9 inch round cake pans, and line with waxed paper. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the milk and the softened butter. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla extract. Add the boiling water.
Divide the batter evenly between two prepared pans. Bake 30-40 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean when inserted into the cake's center.
Cool on a wire rack for 10-15 minutes. Remove cakes from the pans, discard the waxed paper, and transfer them to the wire rack to cook completely. Frost the tops and sides with Ghirardelli's chocolate buttercream frosting.
