Chocolate Cake

I'm a vanilla cake personally, but since Barry and Rauen have been craving a chocolate fix here's my chocolate cake recipe. It makes a Duble or triple layer cake!

Ingredients:
2 Cups flour
3/4 Cup Cocoa
1 1/2 tsp Baking powder
Pinch of salt
1 Cup milk
1 tsp Vanilla essence
2 Cups of sugar
1/2 Cup of oil
1 Cup of Boiling water
2 Eggs

Method:
Grease cake pans. Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. Place dry ingredients in a bowl. Add eggs, vanilla essence and oil then mix. Add milk then mix again and finally add boiling water and stir until you get a smooth consistency.

Pour mixture into cake tins, don't fill the tins more than 1/2 way or they with spill over.
Bake for 30 minutes or until a knife comes out smoothly.

Ice with butter icing:
2 Tbsp Butter
1 tsp Vanilla essence
2 Tbsp Cocoa
1 1/2 Cups of icing sugar

Mix ingredients together until you get a smooth icing.

Ice cake and serve.
