Chocolate Chocolate Layer Cake

• FOR THE CAKE:
• 2 cups Sugar
• 3/4 cups Cocoa Powder
• 1-3/4 cup Cake Flour (use All Purpose If You Don't Have Cake Flour)
• 1 cup Buttermilk
• 1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 whole Eggs
• 1/2 cups Vegetable Oil
• 1 cup Hot Brewed Coffee
• FOR THE FROSTING:
• 1 stick Butter
• 2/3 cups Cocoa Powder
• 3 cups Powdered Sugar
• 1/3 cups Milk, Plus More For Thinning
• 1 Tablespoon Vanilla

1. Preheat oven to 350u0b0F and grease and flour two 9-inch round pans.
2. Mix sugar, cocoa powder, flour, buttermilk, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Add eggs and vegetable oil. Using a hand mixer on medium, mix for 2 minutes. Add hot coffee and mix until combined. Batter will be thin.
3. Pour batter into the prepared pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when stuck in the middle of the cake. Remove cakes from oven and set them on a cooling rack. Allow to cool before frosting.
4. For the frosting:
5. Put the butter into a microwave safe bowl. Melt in the microwave. Mix melted butter in a mixing bowl with the cocoa powder using a hand mixer. Alternate adding the sugar and milk to the chocolate-butter mixture and mix until smooth. Add vanilla. Add more milk until spreadable consistency is reached.
6. Put the first cake on a serving platter and frost the top. Add the second cake and frost the top and sides. Enjoy!
