Instructions
Mix all of your dry ingredients thoroughly (use a whisk to combine, or sift the cocoa powder after measuring). For the best chocolate flavor, do include the optional espresso powder or switch your unsweetened cocoa powder out for Dutch process cocoa.
Transfer to a mason jar to send as a gift, or an airtight storage container.
Add liquid ingredients to bake your chocolate cake: 2-3 large eggs, 1 cup milk, ½ cup melted butter or vegetable oil, 3 teaspoons vanilla extract, then add 1 cup boiling water after your batter is combined. Mix until smooth and transfer to your cake pans or 9x13 pan.
Notes
Bake in a 9x13 baking pan, 3 6" rounds, 2 8" rounds, a 10" springform pan, or a 10" bundt pan.
