Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 cup caramel sauce
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.
- Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined.
- Gradually add the boiling water to the batter, mixing continuously. The batter will be thin, but that's okay.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
- While the cakes are baking, prepare the caramel sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the caramel sauce, heavy cream, butter, and sea salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Once the cakes have cooled, remove them from the pans and place one cake layer on a serving plate.
- Spread a layer of caramel sauce on top of the cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top and spread another layer of caramel sauce on top.
- In a separate bowl, prepare the caramel frosting by combining the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and enough caramel sauce to achieve a spreadable consistency. Mix until smooth.
- Spread the caramel frosting over the top and sides of the cake.
- Serve and enjoy!
