1 cup unsalted butter, softened
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Cake Batter
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or line them with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes until smooth.
Stir in the boiling water. The batter will be thin—this is normal.
Fold in the Nestlé Toll House chocolate chips.
Step 2: Bake the Cake
