Chocolate Cake

Here is a picture and recipe of the very first chocolate cake, or the the very first cake for that matter, that I baked. I made it last last week and I was just too lazy to post the pics here. Anyway, I didn't know I can actually bake. Now i'm gonna go crazy about baking...
Ingredients:
2 cups sugar
1-3/4 cups self-rising flour
3/4 cup Hershey's cocoa
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350° F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans.
2. Stir together sugar, flour, cocoa and salt in large bowl. Add eggs, milk, oil and vanilla; beat on medium speed of mixer for 2 minutes. Pou batter into prepared pans.
3. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool for 10 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks. Cool completely.
4. Slice and serve.
