Como fazer Fudgy Chocolate Layer Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a medium saucepan, melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 8 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups granulated sugar, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Add the melted chocolate mixture to the dry ingredients. Add 1 cup buttermilk and 2 large eggs.
- Beat on low speed until just combined.
- Beat on high speed for 2 minutes, or until the batter is light and fluffy.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 5 minutes before inverting them onto wire racks to cool completely.
- For the frosting: In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer.
- Remove from heat and stir in 8 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips until melted and smooth.
- Let the frosting cool slightly until it thickens to a spreadable consistency.
- Once the cakes are completely cool, frost the top of one layer with about 1/3 cup of the chocolate frosting.
- Top with the second cake layer.
- Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting.
