OH HAI Cake Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- ¾ cup cocoa powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water
Frosting:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 1 cup cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ cup whole milk
- Colored icing gel (for writing “OH HAI”)
Directions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Add the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes.
- Boiling Water: Gradually add the boiling water to the batter, mixing until combined. The batter will be quite thin—don’t worry, this is what makes the cake mοist!
- Bake: Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove them from the pans and cool completely on a wire rack.
Frosting:
- Beat Butter: In a large bowl, beat the butter until creamy.
- Add Cocoa and Sugar: Gradually add the cocoa powder and powdered sugar, beating on low speed until well combined.
- Add Vanilla and Milk: Mix in the vanilla extract and then gradually add the milk, beating until the frosting is smooth and spreadable.
Assemble the Cake:
- Frost the Cake: Place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread a layer of frosting on top. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake.
- Decorate: Use colored icing gel to write “OH HAI” on the top of the cake. Get creative with any additional decorations!

Only in silence the word
Only in darkness the light
Only in dying life
Bright the hawk’s path on the empty sky
