Ingredients:
For the Cake:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ¾ cups granulated sugar
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
1 cup buttermilk (or milk + 1 tbsp vinegar)
½ cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup hot coffee (enhances the chocolate flavor!)
For the Chocolate Ganache:
1 cup heavy cream
8 oz semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
1 tbsp butter
For the Chocolate Frosting:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
3 cups powdered sugar
½ cup cocoa powder
¼ cup heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions:
Make the Chocolate Cake:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 9-inch cake pans.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
Pour in hot coffee and stir until smooth. (Batter will be thin—don’t worry, that’s perfect!)
Divide the batter evenly into the cake pans.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely.
Prepare the Ganache:
Heat heavy cream until hot but not boiling.
Pour over chopped chocolate and butter, stirring until smooth.
Let cool slightly until thickened but pourable.
Make the Frosting:
Beat butter until creamy.
Add powdered sugar and cocoa powder, mixing until combined.
Pour in heavy cream and vanilla, then beat until fluffy and smooth.
Assemble the Cake:
Place one cake layer on a plate and spread a layer of ganache on top.
Add the second cake layer, then frost the entire cake with chocolate frosting.
Drizzle the remaining ganache over the cake and let it slightly drip down the sides.
Slice & Enjoy!
Cut a slice, take a bite, and indulge in rich, chocolatey perfection! 
Tips & Variations:
Want extra indulgence? Add chocolate chips or a layer of chocolate mousse! No buttermilk? Use milk + 1 tbsp vinegar as a substitute. Make it a celebration! Decorate with chocolate curls, berries, or edible gold dust!
