Instructions :
Chocolate Cake:
– Preheat oven to 350F, grease two 8″ round baking pans and dust with cocoa powder. Line bottoms with parchment.
– Place all dry ingredients into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Stir to combine.In a medium bowl whisk all wet ingredients (pour hot water in slowly as not to cook the eggs).
– Add wet ingredients to dry and mix on medium for 2 – 3 mins. Batter will be very thin. Pour evenly into prepared pans. I used a kitchen scale to ensure the batter is evenly distributed.
– Bake for 45 mins or until a cake tester comes out mostly clean.Cool 10 minutes in the pans then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
