Ingredients (Makes one 8-inch round cake)

• 2 large eggs

• 180 ml (¾ cup) milk (dairy or plant-based)

• 120 ml (½ cup) vegetable oil (or melted butter)

• 200 g (1 cup) granulated sugar

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 130 g (1 cup) all-purpose flour

• 45 g (½ cup) unsweetened cocoa powder

• 1 ½ tsp baking powder

• ½ tsp baking soda

• ¼ tsp salt

• 120 ml (½ cup) hot water or hot coffee (to intensify the chocolate flavor)

⚙️ Optional Toppings

• Powdered sugar for dusting

• Chocolate ganache or frosting

• Berries, nuts, or whipped cream

‍ Instructions

1. Preheat and Prep

• Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).

• Grease and line an 8-inch round or square baking pan with parchment paper.

2. Blend the Wet Ingredients

• In a blender, add: eggs, milk, oil, sugar, and vanilla.

• Blend on medium speed for 15–20 seconds until smooth.

3. Add Dry Ingredients

• Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

• Pulse just until combined (about 10–15 seconds). Don’t over-blend.

4. Add Hot Water/Coffee

• Carefully pour in the hot water or coffee and blend briefly (5–10 seconds) until fully incorporated. The batter will be thin—this is key for a moist cake!

5. Bake

• Pour the batter into the prepared pan.

• Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

6. Cool and Serve

• Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

• Dust with powdered sugar or spread with ganache, if desired.

Tips for Success

• For cupcakes: Divide into a lined muffin tin and bake for 15–18 minutes.

• Add-ins like chocolate chips or espresso powder can boost flavor.

• For an extra rich treat, top with a quick 2-ingredient chocolate ganache (just heat 100 g dark chocolate + 100 ml cream until melted and smooth).
