Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 3/4 cups sugar
• 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/2 cup canola oil
• 2 large eggs, at room temperature
• 1 cup buttermilk, at room temperature
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup boiling water

Directions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

3. 3

   In another bowl, blend softened butter, oil, and sugar until creamy.

4. 4

   Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.

5. 5

   Alternately add the flour mixture and buttermilk to the wet ingredients, starting and ending with the flour.

6. 6

   Carefully stir in boiling water; the batter will be thin, which ensures moisture.

7. 7

   Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.

8. 8

   Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
