Instructions
The Most
Amazing Chocolate Cake
1. Preheat
oven to 350 degrees. Butter three 9-inch cake rounds. Dust with flour and tap
out the excess.
2. Mix
together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a stand
mixer using a low speed until combined.
3. Add
eggs, buttermilk, warm water, oil, and vanilla. Beat on a medium speed until
smooth. This should take just a couple of minutes.
4. Divide
batter among the three pans. I found that it took just over 3 cups of the
batter to divide it evenly.
5. Bake
for 30-35 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Cool
on wire racks for 15 minutes and then turn out the cakes onto the racks and
allow to cool completely.
7. Frost
with your favorite frosting and enjoy!
Chocolate
Cream Cheese Buttercream Frosting
1. In
a large bowl, beat together butter and cream cheese until fluffy. Use a hand
mixer or stand mixer for best results
2. Add
in cocoa powder and vanilla extract. Beat until combined.
3. Beat
in powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time. Add milk as necessary to make a spreadable
consistency. The frosting should be very thick and will thicken even more if
refrigerated.
