2 c Granulated sugar
3/4 c Unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 ts Baking powder
1 1/2 ts Baking soda
1 ts Salt
2 lg Eggs

1/2 c Vegetable oil

MMMMM---------------------CHOCOLATE GANACHE--------------------------
1 c Heavy cream
8 oz Semisweet chocolate; finely
-chopped
2 tb Butter

Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 35 minutes
Total time: 55 minutes

Cake:

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9" round baking
pans.

In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking
soda, and salt. Add eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla to the dry
ingredients. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Stir in boiling
water (batter will be thin). Pour batter into prepared pans.

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center
comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes in the pans, then remove cakes
from pans and let cool completely on wire racks.

Chocolate Ganache:

Heat heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins
to simmer.

Place chopped chocolate in a heat-proof bowl. Pour hot cream over the
chocolate and let sit for 2 to 3 minutes.

Stir until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is smooth. Add
butter and mix until glossy.

Assemble the Cake:

Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of ganache
over the top.

Add the second cake layer on top and pour the remaining ganache over
the cake, allowing it to drip down the sides.

Notes:

For an extra moist cake, brush layers with simple syrup before adding
ganache.

Ensure cakes are completely cooled before assembling to avoid melting
the ganache.
