Preparation

Preparation25 min

Cook time30 min

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease and flour two nine inch round pans (or, like me who has no cake pans, one 9x13 pan)
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add in the eggs, milk, oil and vanilla and mix for thoroughly.
Stir in the boiling water last and pour evenly into the prepared pan(s). Don't worry, the batter really should be that thin.
Bake 30-35 minutes in the preheated oven until the cake tests done with a toothpick. Cool for 10 minutes in the pan(s) then remove and cool completely on a wire rack.
1) Buttercream:
Cream together the butter, sugar and vanilla. Mix in the powdered sugar then add the milk and mix until light and fluffy.
