Notes: The batter will be runnier than you expect, but don’t be tempted to add more flour. You can use hot brewed coffee instead of boiling water to amplify the chocolate flavor.
Notes: The recipe highly recommends using cake strips for a more even bake. Let the cakes cool completely before frosting.
Notes: Use a stand mixer with a paddle attachment for best results. Beat until light and fluffy.
Notes: Make sure the cake layers are cooled before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting. Once frosted, you can chill the cake for 30 minutes to set the frosting before serving.
