Preheat the oven and prepare three 9-inch cake pans by greasing and dusting with cocoa powder. → Whisk together all dry cake ingredients, then add wet ingredients and mix until just combined to form the batter. → Divide the batter into the pans and bake for 30-35 minutes. Let the cakes cool completely. → Prepare the frosting by beating together butter, cream cheese, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and milk until smooth and spreadable. → Assemble the cake by stacking the layers with frosting in between, then frost the entire outside of the cake.

Analyzing cooking steps...
Using high-quality cocoa powder will significantly improve the flavor of both the cake and the frosting.
Ensure your butter and cream cheese are fully softened for a smooth, lump-free frosting.
The amount of milk needed for the frosting can vary, so add it gradually until you reach the perfect consistency.
Bake the cakes on the center rack of your oven for the most even cooking.
Make sure the cake layers are completely cool before you begin frosting to prevent the frosting from melting.
