Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
-
In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Mix in the hot water until well combined.
-
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove from the pans and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
For the frosting, beat the melted chocolate, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy.
-
Place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread a layer of frosting on top. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the top and sides of the cake.
-
Let the cake rest for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Enjoy!
