List of Ingredients




1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened at room temperature
3 cups light brown sugar, packed
4 eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
3 cups sifted cake flour
1 1/3 cups sour cream
1½ cups hot coffee


Recipe



Butter and flour 3 (9-inch) cake pans.

Beat butter until smooth; add sugar and eggs mixing until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add vanilla, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Add 1½ cups flour and 2/3 cup sour cream. Repeat with the remaining flour and sour cream. Slowly mix in coffee.

Pour into the prepared pans and bake at 350°F until the tops are firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Let cool in the pan 10 minutes. Turn out onto wire racks and let cool completely before frosting.

Frosting:
1 pound butter, softened
4 cups powdered sugar
12 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla

Beat butter until soft. Add sugar, ½ cup at the time, mix until smooth. Add the chocolate and vanilla, mixing well.
