Ingredients

THE MOST AMAZING CHOCOLATE CAKE:
butter and flour for coating and dusting the cake pan
3 cups all-purpose flour
3 cups granulated sugar
1 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoons salt
4 large eggs
1 cups buttermilk
1 cups warm water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

CHOCOLATE CREAM CHEESE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING:
1 cups butter softened
8 oz cream cheese softened
1 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
7-8 cups powdered sugar
about 1/4 cup milk as needed


Instructions


1 00:00:19 - Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter three 9-inch cake rounds. Dust with flour and tap out the excess.

2 00:00:29 - Mix together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a stand mixer using a low speed until combined.

3 00:01:28 - Add eggs, buttermilk, warm water, oil, and vanilla. Beat on a medium speed until smooth. This should take just a couple of minutes.

4 00:02:11 - Divide batter among the three pans. I found that it took just over 3 cups of the batter to divide it evenly.

5 00:02:37 - Bake for 30-35 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

6 00:04:03 - Cool on wire racks for 15 minutes and then turn out the cakes onto the racks and allow to cool completely.

7 00:04:21 - Frost with your favorite frosting and enjoy!


CHOCOLATE CREAM CHEESE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING:

2 00:03:13 - Add in cocoa powder and vanilla extract. Beat until combined.

3 00:03:26 - Beat in powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time. Add milk as necessary to make a spreadable consistency. The frosting should be very thick and will thicken even more if refrigerated.
