Best Chocolate Cake

... is what this cake is called! I thought it was really good, but I do still like wacky cake better! (recipe to come another day) I found this recipe on the Mormon Mom's Podcast and thought I'd try it. So here ya go!

The Best Chocolate Cake EVER!

(Pre-heat oven to 350°)

2 eggs
1c sugar
2 T soft butter
1 c. oil
½ c. cocoa
½ c. buttermilk (= 3T soft butter + 1/2c. milk + 1T vinegar)
1 t. vanilla
2 ¼ c. flour
1 ½ t. baking powder
1 ½ t. baking soda
¼ t. salt
1 c. boiling water
1 c. chocolate chips (I like to use my favorite chocolate bar, chopped)

Frosting
½ c. soft butter
1 c. powdered sugar
2/3 c. cocoa
1 t. vanilla
2 T milk

Add 1st 7 ingredients on at a time, mixing constantly. Sift dry ingredients together and fold in to mix. Fold in boiling water. Put batter in 2 greased, floured 8” rounds. Sprinkle choc chips on top of batter. Bake at 350° for 25 minutes.

Frosting: beat 1st 3 ingredients, then add last 2. Beat until smooth. Add more sugar until you get a good consistency.

*** OK, here's what I would change and/or do different next time. First, I used my kitchen aid and I have a feeling I over mixed it. It was really crummy, so next time I will just use a wooden spoon and actually fold in the dry ingredients. Who knows it just might work out! And second, is more of an FYI. I doubled my frosting and still felt there wasn't nearly enough!! Next time I will quadruple it! Anyway, ENJOY! And if you make this let me know what you think and how it turned out! ***
