The first time I made this chocolate cake was because of a friend's 30th birthday, he said he likes chocolate cake.
Since I had to make a 3-layer cake for his birthday, I asked for help to make the cake as efficient as possible, to save time to decorate the cake. A friend gave me this recipe, she said it is not time consuming and tasty.
This cake is very success, the 3-layer cake is finally finished by less than 25 people!
This is how it looks, the color is very dark, it doesn't taste too sweet

1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup cooking oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
