Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 cup whole milk (or buttermilk)
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup Dr Pepper (regular or diet)
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two round cake pans to prevent sticking.

- Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and Dr Pepper. Mix until fully incorporated without overmixing.
- Bake the Cake: Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Cool Down: Allow the cakes to cool in their pans for about ten minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
- Frosting Time: Once cooled, top with your favorite frosting, such as cream cheese frosting or a simple dusting of powdered sugar.
