Time 55m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup baking cocoa
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup buttermilk
2 eggs
1 cup hot water
1/2 cup butter (or margarine, softened )
1/4 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients. Mix in the oil, buttermilk, and eggs. Once the eggs are fully incorporated, pour in the hot water and mix well (your batter will seem runny, but I promise that it will work out!).
  • Grease a 9×13″ baking pan and pour batter into pan. Bake for 33-38 minutes (or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean- mine was done at 33 minutes). When the cake is completely cool, top with frosting and decorate with sprinkles (if so desired).
  • Frosting:.
  • Mix all ingredients with a hand mixer until smooth. Add more powdered sugar or milk until you reach desired consistency.
