detailed description

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. This will help the cake come out of the pans easily.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 5 minutes.
Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. This will help incorporate air into the batter.
Mix in the vanilla extract.
Alternately add the dry ingredients and the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. This will help keep the batter light and fluffy.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
