- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter
- 1 cup of white sugar
- 2 small eggs
- 3/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup of milk
- 1 1/4 cup of flour
- 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3/4 tsp baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- Frosting of your choice (we used buttercream)
- Sprinkles
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease two round cake pans with a bit of butter then sprinkle with cocoa powder.
Sift the flour, cocoa, salt, and baking soda together in a large bowl.
Cream the sugar and butter together in your mixer, until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time and beat very slowly, then the vanilla extract.
Combine the flour mixture alternatively with milk into the butter mixture, until thoroughly incorporated.
Pour the batter into the two prepared cake pans.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow it to cool in the cake pan for 10 minutes before moving to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
Once the cake is completely cooled, frost the cake with the frosting of your choice and decorate. Enjoy.
