How to Make Neiman Marcus Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans.
- Melt unsweetened chocolate and butter in a double boiler or microwave. Set aside to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the cooled chocolate mixture.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While cakes are cooling, prepare the frosting: In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until light and fluffy.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Once the cakes are completely cool, frost the top of one layer with a generous amount of frosting. Top with the second cake layer and frost the entire cake.
- Enjoy your delicious homemade Neiman Marcus Chocolate Cake!
