How to cook deliciously - Double Layer Chocolate Cake
1. Stage
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease two 10-inch round cake pans. Line with rounds of parchment paper, and grease the paper.
2. Stage
Combine hot coffee and chocolate chips in a medium bowl; let stand, stirring occasionally, until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth.
3. Stage
Sift sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and baking powder together into a large bowl.
4. Stage
Beat eggs in another large bowl with an electric mixer until thickened slightly and lemon colored. Slowly mix in buttermilk, oil, and vanilla. Add melted chocolate-coffee mixture; beat until well combined. Add dry ingredients and beat on medium speed until well combined; don't overmix. Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans.
5. Stage
Bake in the preheated oven until a tester inserted in the centers comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes. Remove from the oven and place pans on a wire rack until completely cool, about 30 minutes. Run a thin knife around the edges of the pans and invert layers on to the racks. Remove parchment paper.
6. Stage
Frost as desired, or wrap each layer securely in plastic wrap and keep at room temperature for up to 24 hours.
