Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and spray the bottom of a 9x13 pan with cooking spray. (Please note this recipe may turn out more like cake depending on ingredients you use.)
In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl or stand mixer, mix together eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract.
Now, add in the dry ingredient mixture and beat until well incorporated.
Carefully stir in the boiling water. (See notes.)
Pour batter into pan and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until done. When using a toothpick or knife to check, there will be a few moist crumbs.
