Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare two 9-inch cake pans by greasing them with non-stick spray or butter and dusting with flour.
Place parchment paper in the bottoms of both pans to prevent sticking.
Set the prepared pans aside.

Notes

Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother batter.
For a richer chocolate flavor, use high-quality cocoa and chocolate.
Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting for best results.
