Frosting Ingredients
- 1 cup Butter, softened
- 3 cups Powdered sugar

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans.

- Add the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and eggs to the flour mixture and beat on medium speed until well combined.
- Reduce speed and carefully add boiling water to the cake batter. Beat on high speed for about 1 minute to add air to the batter.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pans.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and cool completely.

- Frost the cooled cake layers with the mint chocolate frosting.
