Grease 3- 9 inch round cake pans or I have used a bundt pan or one large 10 in x 15 in pan.<\/p>\n<p>In a medium bowl, combine the boiling water with the cocoa, and whisk  until smooth. Don&#8217;t be tempted to taste it. \ud83d\ude09 It looks and smells a  lot better than it tastes at this point. Let this mixture cool, while  you prepare the rest.<\/p>\n<p>Sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt and set aside for now.<\/p>\n<p>In a large bowl, (I use my kitchenaid) cream the butter and sugar  together until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then  stir in the vanilla.<\/p>\n<p>Alternately add the flour mixture and the cocoa mixture. So I pour a  bit of the cocoa mixture in, let it mix a bit then a bit of the flour  mixture and let it mix a bit, and repeat until I&#8217;ve added all of the  cocoa and flour mixtures.<\/p>\n<p>Pour the batter into your prepared pan(s).<\/p>\n<p>Bake in preheated oven.<\/p>\n<p>3-9inch rounds for 25-30 minutes<\/p>\n<p>10 in x 15 in pan for 50-60 minutes<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t remember how long the bundt pan took, but I tend to set the  timer for the lower number and then just keep checking it until it&#8217;s  done.<\/p>\n<p>Allow the cake to cool in the pan before pulling it out. And then just dig in and eat it because it&#8217;s so GOOD! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is my most favorite homemade chocolate cake.
