Ingredients
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil plus more for greasing pans
- 3/4 cup natural unsweetened cocoa powder (not Dutch-process) plus more for dusting pans
- 1 cup water
- 3/4 cup well-stirred canned unsweetened coconut milk
- 3 large eggs, warmed in shell in warm water 5 minutes
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 3/4 cups sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350 °F with rack in middle. Oil pans and line bottoms with rounds of parchment, then dust sides only with cocoa powder, knocking out excess.
- Whisk together water, coconut milk, 3/4 cup oil, eggs, and vanilla in a bowl until well blended and smooth.
- Sift together flour, sugar, 3/4 cup cocoa powder, baking powder and soda, and salt into a large bowl. Add wet ingredients to flour mixture and whisk until smooth.
- Divide batter between pans, and bake until a tester comes out clean and layers just begin to pull away from side of pans, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Cool cake layers in pans on a rack 30 minutes, then run a thin knife around edge of pans and invert cakes onto rack. Remove parchment and cool completely.
