• 1½ cups all-purpose flour

• 1 cup cocoa powder

• 1tbsp baking soda

•  1½ tbsp baking powder

CHOCOLATE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

Directions:

Making the chocolate cake

Take an oven, preheat it to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Now take two cake pans and spray oil on them (greasing them).

First, we have to make the cake. So use cake ingredients to make the Lisbon chocolate cake. Take a medium-size bowl, add the sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Combine all the ingredients well.

Now add the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract to the mixture. Take an electric mixer and mix well with it to make a soft batter.

Pour the boiling water into the batter and combine well by hand to make a lump. Make a thin consistency of the lump. Pour it on the cake pans evenly.

Put the cake pans in the preheated oven. Bake for 32-36 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Remove the cake from the oven and cool down completely. Keep them aside.

Chocolate buttercream frosting

• Now it,s time to make the frosting. Use the frosting ingredients. Add melted butter to the cocoa powder and combine well. Add confectioners sugar and milk, mix with the help of an electric mixer machine. Make a light consistency. If it makes dry then add more milk.

• Pour the chocolate frosting on the top of the cake. Cool in a refrigerator then serve. The making process of the chocolate frosting is like a Chocolate Gravy recipe.

Tips: Add salt and sugar as per your taste. Use unsweetened cocoa powder to make the "Lisbon chocolate cake".
