Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Bake after pressure cooking for ideal texture.
Mix dry ingredients in one bowl: flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, and salt.
Whisk milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla in another bowl to create smooth batter.
Combine wet and dry mixtures, fold gently to avoid overmixing.
Pour the batter into a greased 9-inch round cake pan evenly.
Bake for 30 minutes, checking with a toothpick for doneness.
Cool the cake completely before slicing and serving.
Notes
Be careful not to overmix the batter. Ensure even distribution in the pan for optimal baking. Adjust steam release settings for desired cake texture.
