Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Add the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and mix until smooth.
  4. Gradually stir in the boiling water until combined (the batter will be thin).
Baking
  1. Pour the batter into prepared cake pans and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  2. Allow cakes to cool in pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Assembly
  1. Once cooled, layer one cake with caramel sauce and toffee bits, top with the second cake, and repeat layering with caramel and toffee bits on top.
  2. Serve with whipped cream or frosting if desired.

Notes

For best results, ensure your ingredients like eggs and milk are at room temperature. Mix just until combined to keep the cake fluffy!
