Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup hot black coffee

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease two 9-inch round cake pans with butter or cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
3. Add the eggs, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth batter forms.
4. Pour in the hot coffee and mix gently until the batter is fully blended — it will be thin, which is normal.
5. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans and bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
6. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
