Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 8-inch cake pans with nonstick cooking spray and line the bottoms with parchment. Spray the parchment and dust with flour.
- Whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
- Beat together the butter and sugar in a stand mixer until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at time and beat until incorporated. Add the sour cream and continue to beat until fully incorporated. Then add the vanilla.
- Stir together the instant espresso powder with the hot water in a spouted measuring cup. With the mixer running, add the dry ingredients in two additions, alternating with the espresso.
- Divide the batter between the cake pans and bake until a tester inserted in the centers comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool the cakes in the pans on a rack for 10 minutes, then remove the cakes to the rack to cool completely.
- Slice a thin layer from the top of each cooled cake with a serrated knife to remove the domed top. With a serrated knife, slice the layers in half horizontally to make 4 layers. Spread buttercream on the cut side of a layer and sandwich another layer on top. Repeat with the remaining frosting and layers, leaving the last top layer unfrosted.
- Apply a thin crumb-coat of frosting to the entire cake and chill in the refrigerator at least 15 minutes to set. Use the remaining frosting to generously frost the cake.
- Put the egg whites and sugar into a large bowl set over a double boiler. Whisk constantly until the sugar melts and the mixture is very thin and warm.
- Pour the egg whites into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and whisk on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes. Turn to low speed and continue beating until cool, about 10 minutes.
- Turn the mixer to medium speed and whisk in the butter in small pieces. (The mixture may look curdled before it comes together.) Add the vanilla extract. Re-beat the mixture as needed to keep it smooth as you frost your cake.

Another of my mother's famous desserts. So, so tasty. She has even made it "diabetic" friendly for my sister.

- Preheat your oven to 350F degrees and grease two 9-inch circular springform cake tins. Line the bottoms of each with parchment paper by tracing the bottom of your cake tin on the parchment and using kitchen shears to cut them out. You can cut four circles out at this point and set two aside for the other layers.
- In a small bowl combine the instant coffee powder with the hot water and stir to dissolve; set aside. In a large mixing bowl sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Whisk until fully incorporated and set aside. In a second large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the eggs and sugar on a low to medium speed for about 1-2 minutes or until it becomes light in colour. With the mixer on low, slowly pour in the milk, vanilla extract, oil and the instant coffee mixture until everything is fully combined. Incorporate the dry ingredients with the wet: keep your hand mixer on a low speed and using a small ladle, add the flour mixture one scoop at a time to the mixing bowl. Once the chocolate cake batter is uniform, divide it into the two prepared cake tins and transfer to the oven to bake for 30-35 minutes. To test that the cake is done, insert a toothpick into the centre of the cake; when it comes out clean, the cakes are ready to come out of the oven
- Prepare the vanilla cake batter as follows. Your oven should already be preheated to 350F degrees. Reassemble your springform pans and again, grease them and line the bottoms with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Whisk until fully incorporated and set aside. In a second large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the sugar and butter on a low to medium speed for about 1-2 minutes or until it looks whipped and airy. With the mixer on low, add one egg at a time and beat until fully combined. Slowly pour in the milk and vanilla extract and mix until fully combined. Incorporate the dry ingredients with the wet: keep your hand mixer on a low speed and using a small ladle, add the flour mixture one scoop at a time to the mixing bowl. Once the cake batter is uniform, divide it into the two prepared cake tins and transfer to the oven to bake for 30-35 minutes. To test that the cake is done, insert a toothpick into the ce
- While the cakes cool, prepare the icing. In a food processor, pulse the cookies until they form a crumble that resembles wet sand and set aside. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter on medium speed for 5 minutes or until it is light and fluffy. Turn the electric mixer down to low and slowly add the confectioners sugar one spoon at a time until well combined. To finish the icing, add the vanilla extract one teaspoon at a time and then the whole milk one tablespoon at a time. Divide the icing in two and fold the cookie crumble into one half of the icing.
