Moist Chocolate Cake

I love this cake recipe. It is so moist and always a winner for our guests.

3 cups flour (white or wheat, though remember with wheat a little more dense)
2 cups sugar (I have successfully used 1 3/4 cups honey)
1/2 cup cocoa
1 cup butter milk (I don't usually have this, so I use milk with lemon or vinegar in it)
1 cup and 1 TBS oil
2 eggs
1 tsp salt
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp almond extract (optional, I LOVE it, my hubby doesn't)
1 cup boiling water

Mix all ingredients together in order listed and then pour into a greased 9X13 pan and bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. It can take longer, just until a knife/toothpick comes out clean!
