Ingredients

12 servings
  • 2 cups granulated white sugar
  • 1¾ cups all purpose flour
  • ¾ cup Hershey's unsweetened cocoa
  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1½ teaspoons baking soda
  • 1½ teaspoons salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • ½ cup vegetable or canola oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • ½ cup (1 stick) butter
  • ⅔ cup Hershey's unsweetened cocoa
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the eggs, milk, oil and vanilla; use an electric mixer to beat for 2 minutes. Stir in the water (batter will be thin). Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.

  3. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from the pans to wire racks. Cool completely.

  4. Melt the butter. Stir in the cocoa. Alternately add sugar and milk, beating to spreading consistency. Add a small amount of additional milk, if needed. Stir in the vanilla.
