Ultimate chocolate cake !

Get ready to dive into chocolate bliss with this indulgent cake! Rich, moist, and swirled with creamy goodness, it's a must-try! 🍫🍰✨

Ingredients:

- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease up two 9-inch round cake pans with a little flour to keep them from sticking.
2. In a large mixing bowl, sift together that luscious cocoa powder, flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt—let's get all those dry ingredients mingling!
3. Now, add in the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry mix. Whisk it all together until it's beautifully combined and smooth.
4. Carefully stir in the boiling water. This is the secret to a moist cake, so take your time! Fold in those delightful chocolate chips—yum!
5. In a separate bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and a teaspoon of vanilla until your mixture is silky smooth.
6. Time to assemble! Pour half of the chocolate batter into each prepared cake pan and then scoop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture on top. Use a knife to swirl it in for that gorgeous marbled effect.
7. Bake those beauties in your preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Once done, let the cakes cool in the pans for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Frost it up however you like and get ready to enjoy a slice (or two!) of this ultimate chocolate experience!
