Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350F. Line an 8 inch springform with parchment paper or lightly grease with baking spray. Set aside

Step 2

Chocolate Cake
Beat the butter and sugar until light and creamy.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the buttermilk.

Step 3

Stir in the flour, baking powder and cocoa powder.
In the end add the melted chocolate to the cake batter and pour it into the prepared baking pan.

Step 4

Bake for 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Leave to cool slightly before removing from the pan and completely before cutting the layers.

Step 5

Chocolate Frosting
In a small sauce pan add the heavy cream and bring to a boil.Add the chocolate and stir until melted. Remove from the heat.

Step 6

Cover and let chill 1 hour at room temperature and about 4 hours in the fridge until set and firm.
Whisk the mixture until light and fluffy. You you want it creamier, just whisk for a minute. If you'd like more of a whipped chocolate frosting, whisk until soft peaks form.
