The action you're taking is
Casting a Spell
.Attack
is a different action which would let you attack twice withExtra Attack
.You cannot Booming Blade your attacks with Extra Attack.
This is actually the topic of a Sage Advice:
Also, you actually can use Booming Blade twice in one turn because its a cantrip. The limit for spells cast only applies to leveled spells. The easiest way to Booming Blade twice is the Sorcerer metamagic Quicken Spell.
This is not worded completely correct; you can cast two leveled spells in one turn (using Action Surge). You just cannot cast a leveled spell in the same turn as casting a spell using a bonus action.
Yeah, Action Surge can do two leveled spells.
