Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 1 3/4 cups - AP Flour
- 2 cups - Sugar
- 3/4 cups - Cocoa Powder Good Stuff
- 2 teaspoons - Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoons - Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoons - Kosher Salt
- 1 cups - Buttermilk Shaken
- 1/2 cups - Vegetable Oil
- 2 - XL Eggs Room Temperature
- 1 teaspoons - Vanilla
- 1 cups - Freshly Brewed Coffee Hot
- - Butter For pans
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter two 8-inch x 2-inch round cake pans. Line with parchment paper, then butter and flour the pans.
Sift the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and mix on low speed until combined. In another bowl, combine the buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry. With mixer still on low, add the coffee and stir just to combine, scraping the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Pour the batter into the prepared pans and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until a cake tester comes out clean. Cool in the pans for 30 minutes, then turn them out onto a cooling rack and cool completely.
Place 1 layer, flat side up, on a flat plate or cake pedestal. With a knife or offset spatula, spread the top with frosting. Place the second layer on top, rounded side up, and spread the frosting evenly on the top and sides of the cake.
