Chocolate Cake

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups white sugar
• 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup milk
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup hot, strong coffee

Steps

1. Set the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) to preheat, and grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking pan.
2. Use a large bowl to combine the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder and baking soda. Stir in the oil, milk, eggs and vanilla until the batter is smooth. Add the hot coffee after the other ingredients and stir it in, then spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
3. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick tested in the cake comes out clean.
