how to make Triple Chocolate Cake
Ingredients:
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups granulated sugar.
- ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- cup strong black coffee
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the frosting:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 4 cups powdered sugar.
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, mix together buttermilk, coffee, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove them from the pans and place them on a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the frosting, beat butter in a large bowl until creamy.
Gradually add powdered sugar and cocoa powder and beat until well combined.
Add heavy cream and vanilla extract and beat until the frosting is smooth and creamy.
Place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread a layer of frosting over the top.
Repeat with the other cake layer, then spread frosting over the top and sides of the cake.
Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave or in a double boiler and drizzle over the top of the cake.
Serve and enjoy!
