Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a 12 by 18 by 1 1/2-inch sheet pan.
- In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugars on high speed until light, approximately 5 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix well. Combine the buttermilk, sour cream, and coffee. On low speed, add the flour mixture and the buttermilk mixture alternately in thirds, beginning with the buttermilk mixture and ending with the flour mixture. Mix the batter only until blended.
- Pour the batter into the prepared sheet pan, smooth the top with a spatula, and bake in the center of the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool to room temperature before frosting.
- 2 cups sugar
- 2/3 cup water
- 6 extra-large egg whites, at room temperature
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1 1/4 pounds (5 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons Triple Sec or other orange liqueur
- 1 tablespoon orange food coloring
- Combine the sugar with 2/3 cup water in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan and, without stirring, bring to a boil. Cover the saucepan and allow the mixture to boil until the sugar dissolves. Uncover and continue boiling until the mixture reaches 240 degrees F on a candy thermometer. Pour the syrup into a heat-proof measuring cup.
- Place the egg whites and cream of tartar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on high speed until the eggs form stiff peaks. With the mixer on high speed, slowly pour the syrup into the egg whites. Continue beating on high speed until the mixture is absolutely at room temperature, about 10 to 15 minutes.
- With the mixer on medium speed, add the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, and then add the vanilla and liqueur. (If the mixture becomes runny, the meringue was too warm and the butter melted. Chill slightly and beat again.) Add the food coloring and combine.

CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH AMERICAN BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

Time 1h35m
Yield One 2-layer, 9-inch round cake
Number Of Ingredients 16
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a big bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Whisk in the coffee, cocoa powder, and 1/2 cup water and heat it for a minute, stirring constantly. Pour the melted butter mixture into the flour mixture and whisk until well combined.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla. Add it to the batter and mix until smooth.
- Divide the batter between the two cake pans, scraping all the batter from the bowl with a rubber spatula. Bake for about 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool for 15 minutes in the pans and then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Frost with buttercream frosting
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine all the ingredients. Whip the mixture on low speed for a while. When the sugar is incorporated, turn the mixer speed up and whip until the buttercream is smooth and looks right to you. If it's too cold, persuade it with a blowtorch if you have one. If it's too wet, add a bit more powdered sugar. If it's too stiff, add a bit more butter. Be sure to scrape the sides of the bowl once or twice to make sure everything is combined.
- Use immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for 24 hours or in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Rewhip cold buttercream before using it.
- Variation: The water/coffee combo in this recipe can be switched up, but remember, coffee is to chocolate like salt is to beef. Coffee brings out the flavor of chocolate without making it taste like coffee, just as salt brings out the flavor of meat without making it taste salty. The liquid you use can be all water, or it can be a full cup of coffee for more of a mocha-flavored cake. And if you're feeling really bold, go ahead and use a cup of a dark stout beer instead. Get creative and experiment a little - after all, it is a science project.

Steps:
- For cake:.
- Position the rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 350°F.
- Line the bottoms of two 9 x 2-inch round cake pans with parchment or wax paper.
- Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt onto a piece of wax paper; set aside.
- In the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer fitted with the paddle blade, beat the butter on medium speed until it is lighter in color; about 45 seconds.
- Add the sugar in a steady stream, then stop the machine and scrape down the bowl.
- Resume beating, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl, until the mixture is very light in color and texture, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Gradually pour in the eggs, about a tablespoon at a time. (If the mixture looks curdled, stop adding the eggs, increase the speed to high, and beat until it looks smooth and shiny. Return the speed to medium, and add the remaining eggs.)
- Continue beating until the mixture is ivory-colored.
- The entire process of adding and beating the eggs should take 3 to 4 minutes.
- Reduce the mixture speed to low.
- Add the flour mixture in four additions, alternating with three additions of the milk.
- After each addition, beat until smooth and scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Beat in the vanilla with the final addition of milk.
- Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pans.
- Bake until the tops spring back when the cakes are lightly pressed in the centers and a toothpick inserted in the centres comes out clean, about 25 minutes.
- Transfer the layers to wire cooling racks and cool for about 10 minutes.
- Invert layers onto the racks or plates and remove the pans; peel off the paper liners and cool completely.
- Frost and fill cake when completely cooled.
- (The cake can be baked 1 day ahead, cooled, and stored, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap. Or freeze, overwrapped with foil, for up to 2 weeks.).
- For frosting:.
- In a small bowl, melt the chocolate over a skillet of hot, not simmering, water, stirring occasionally until smooth.
- Remove from the heat and let stand until tepid.
- In a food processor fitted with the metal blade, pulse the sugar, butter and salt to combine.
- With the machine running, add the milk and vanilla and process until smooth.
- Add the cooled chocolate and process until well blended and creamy; use immediately.
- (The frosting can be stored, covered airtight, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or frozen for up to 3 months. Bring the frosting to room temperature and beat vigorously before using.
- Frosting makes about 2 1/2 cups. Enough for a 9-inch two-layer cake.
