How to Make Pf Changs Great Wall Of Chocolate Cake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, oil, and vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the cakes are cooling, prepare the chocolate frosting:
  9. In a large bowl, beat the butter until light and fluffy.
  10. Gradually add the powdered sugar and cocoa powder, beating until smooth and creamy.
  11. Add the milk and vanilla extract, and beat until the frosting is light and fluffy.
  12. Once the cakes are completely cool, frost the first layer with a generous amount of frosting.
  13. Top with the second cake layer and frost again.
  14. Place the final cake layer on top and frost the entire cake.
  15. Decorate as desired. Consider chocolate shavings, fresh berries, or chocolate ganache for an extra touch of elegance.
  16. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the frosting to set.
