<h3> Instructions:</h3>
<b> 1.Preheat Oven and Prepare Pans:</b> Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare two 9-inch round cake pans by greasing and flouring them, or lining them with parchment paper.
<b> 2.Prepare the Cake Batter:</b> In a large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Then, gently mix in the boiling water until the batter becomes thin and thoroughly combined.
<b> 3.Bake the Cake:</b> Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer them to wire racks to cool fully.
<b> 4.Prepare the Blueberry Cream Filling:</b> In a saucepan, combine blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat until the mixture starts to thicken and bubble. Remove from heat and let cool. Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar until stiff peaks form, then fold in the blueberry mixture.
<b> 5.Prepare the Chocolate Frosting:</b> Beat the butter until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar and cocoa powder, mixing until smooth. Add milk and vanilla extract, beating until fluffy.
<b> 6.Assemble the Cake:</b> Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of blueberry cream filling over the top. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake with chocolate frosting. Decorate as desired with additional blueberries or chocolate shavings.
