DOUBLE CHOCOLATE LAYER CAKE
This recipe came from Gourmet magazine, and was posted in reply to a message board request. Callebaut semisweet chocolate for the cake and Guittard French-vanilla chocolate for the frosting, but any fine-quality semisweet chocolate will produce a wonderful result in either. Use 2 10-inch x 2-inch round cake pans

Steps:
- Make cake layers: Preheat oven to 300°F and grease pans.
- Line bottoms with rounds of wax paper and grease paper.
- Finely chop chocolate and in a bowl combine with hot coffee.
- Let mixture stand, stirring occasionally, until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth.
- Into a large bowl sift together sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- In another large bowl with an electric mixer beat eggs until thickened slightly and lemon colored (about 3 minutes with a standing mixer or 5 minutes with a hand-held mixer).
- Slowly add oil, buttermilk, vanilla, and melted chocolate mixture to eggs, beating until combined well.
- Add sugar mixture and beat on medium speed until just combined well.
- Divide batter between pans and bake in middle of oven until a tester inserted in center comes out clean, 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes.
- Cool layers completely in pans on racks.
- Run a thin knife around edges of pans and invert layers onto racks.
- Carefully remove waxed paper.
- Cake layers may be made 1 day ahead and kept, wrapped well in plastic wrap, at room temperature.
- Make frosting: Finely chop chocolate.
- In a 1 1/2- to 2-quart saucepan bring cream, sugar, and corn syrup to a boil over moderately low heat, whisking until sugar is dissolved.
- Remove pan from heat and add chocolate, whisking until chocolate is melted.
- Cut butter into pieces and add to frosting, whisking until smooth.
- Transfer frosting to a bowl and cool, stirring occasionally, until spreadable (depending on chocolate used, it may be necessary to chill frosting to spreadable consistency).
- Spread frosting between cake layers and over top and sides.
- Cake keeps, covered and chilled, 3 days.
- Bring cake to room temperature before serving.

Steps:
- CAKE: Preheat the oven to 350°F
- Butter two 8 inch round cake pans and line them with parchment paper; butter the paper. Dust the pans with flour, tapping out any excess.

- Pour the batter into the prepared pans.
- Bake for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of each cake comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 30 minutes, then invert the cakes onto a rack to cool completely.

- FROSTING: In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the chocolate at high power in 30 second intervals, stirring, until most of the chocolate is melted.
- Stir until completely melted, then set aside to cool to room temperature.
- Beat the butter at medium speed until pale and fluffy.
- Add the egg yolk and vanilla and beat for 1 minute.
- At low speed, slowly beat in the confectioners' sugar, about 1 minute.
- In a small bowl, dissolve the instant coffee in 2 teaspoons of hot water.
- Slowly beat the coffee and the cooled chocolate into the butter mixture until just combined.
- Evenly spread 1/3 of the frosting over one cake layer to the edge.
- Top with the second cake layer, rounded side up.
- Spread the remaining frosting over the top and side of the cake.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing.
