This chocolate cake recipe is soft, moist, chocolatey and the only one you need for birthday cakes, cupcakes, sheet cakes, etc. Pair this with my whipped chocolate ganache frosting(link below)for the perfect chocolate birthday cake. Also I made mine into a drip cake(you don't need to) and if you want to, the ganache recipe for it is below. There are also tips for the drip cake if you scroll down to the end of the description box.

Ingredients
All Purpose Flour - 2 cups
Granulated Sugar - 2 cups
Cocoa powder - 3/4 cup
Baking powder - 2 tsp.
Baking soda - 1 and 1/2 tsp.
Salt - 1 tsp.
Espresso powder - 1 tsp. ( this is optional, but it really enhances the chocolate flavour, instant coffee or regular coffee mixed into the boiling water will work too)
Eggs - 2
Vegetable oil - 1/2 cup (Canola or other flavourless oils will work too)
Milk - 1 cup
Vanilla - 2 tsp.
Boiling water - 1 cup

Whipped Chocolate Ganache Frosting

Simple syrup

Sugar - 1 cup
Water - 1 cup

Combine both in a saucepan and bring it to a boil.

Ganache drip

Semisweet chocolate - 1/2 cup( 3 ounces)
Milk chocolate - 1/2 cup( 3 ounces)
Heavy whipping cream - 1/2 cup

Heat the heavy cream until bubbles form around the corner, i.e, bring it to a simmer and then pour over the chocolate and mix together. Let it cool down for 5 mins.

***if making the drip cake, chill your cake completely before putting the ganache on top, since the warm ganache might melt your frosting

*** Also put you cake it the refrigerator for ten minutes before piping decorations on top of the ganache drip, because if the ganache is too liquidy, then the decorations will just fall off the cake.
