Death by Chocolate Cake

INGREDIENTS

1. 4 flour
2. 2 c. sugar
3. 2 1/4 cocoa powder
4. 3 tsp. Baking soda
5. 3 tsp. Baking powder
6. 6 eggs
7. 2 1/2 c. solid coffee that is black
8. 1 tablespoon. pure vanilla extract
9. 3 c. butter

Sugar

1. 1 tablespoon. Pure vanilla extract
2. 3/4 c. heavy cream (and more if required )

DIRECTIONS

1. Line three 8" round cake pans with parchment and spray with non stick cooking spray.
2. Make cake. In another bowl, whisk the butter, eggs, coffee, buttermilk, and vanilla together. Whisk the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients.
3. Divide batter equally. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Let cool completely on wire racks.

5. Frost cake involving layers, then cover the cake. With your hands, cover the cake chocolate chips, if desired, with more. In the microwave, melt the chocolate chips drizzle chocolate over cake and serve.
