Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 2 cups white sugar
• 1 cup butter
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 cup boiling water

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). If using layers, grease and line the pans with parchment paper. If using a 9 X 13 pan, grease and dust with cocoa powder. Sift together the cocoa, flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Alternately beat in the flour mixture and the buttermilk, mixing just until incorporated. Add the boiling water and beat for one full minute.
