Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour the pan.

Tip: Make sure to get every groove!
2 ✓

Sift dry ingredients together (flour, cocoa, baking powder, salt).

Tip: Removes cocoa lumps.
3 ✓

Cream butter and sugar, then add eggs one by one.

Tip: Aerated butter makes a lighter cake.
4 ✓

Alternately add dry mix and milk to the batter.

Tip: Prevents the batter from breaking; flour helps absorb the liquid incrementally.
5 ✓

Bake for 40-45 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.

Tip: Check for doneness.

Recipe FAQ

Why is it dry?
Cocoa absorbs liquid just like flour. If you skimp on milk or overbake, it dries out.
Can I swap butter for oil?
Partially. Oil keeps it moister, butter tastes better. A 50-50 split is a good compromise.
