• ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1½ tsp baking powder
• 1½ tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• ½ cup vegetable oil
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup boiling water

• 🔹 For the Chocolate Mousse:

• 8 oz semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
• 1½ cups heavy cream
• ¼ cup powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 🔹 For the Chocolate Ganache:

• 6 oz semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
• ½ cup heavy cream

📝 Instructions

1️⃣ Make the Chocolate Cake:

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla and beat until smooth. Gradually mix in boiling water until the batter is thin and well combined. Pour into prepared pans and bake for 30-35 minutes. Let cakes cool completely.

2️⃣ Prepare the Chocolate Mousse:

Melt semi-sweet chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a double boiler or in the microwave in 20-second intervals. Let cool to room temperature. In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until soft peaks form. Fold in the cooled chocolate until fluffy.

3️⃣ Make the Chocolate Ganache:

Pour heated heavy cream over chopped chocolate. Let sit for 2-3 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.

4️⃣ Assemble the Cake:

Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread chocolate mousse evenly over the top. Place the second cake layer on top and press gently. Pour chocolate ganache over the cake, letting it drip down the sides.

5️⃣ Decorate & Set:

Sprinkle with chocolate shavings, cocoa powder, or chopped chocolate for extra flair. Let the cake set for 30-60 minutes before slicing.

🍫 Tip: For the ultimate chocolate experience, refrigerate for a few hours before serving to allow the mousse and ganache to set perfectly!
