Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter two 8-inch x 2-inch round cake pans. Line with parchment paper, then butter and flour the pans.
- Sift the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and mix on low speed until combined. In another bowl, combine the buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry. With mixer still on low, add the coffee and stir just to combine, scraping the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Pour the batter into the prepared pans and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until a cake tester comes out clean. Cool in the pans for 30 minutes, then turn them out onto a cooling rack and cool completely.
- Place 1 layer, flat side up, on a flat plate or cake pedestal. With a knife or offset spatula, spread the top with frosting. Place the second layer on top, rounded side up, and spread the frosting evenly on the top and sides of the cake.
- Chop the chocolate and place it in a heat-proof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Stir until just melted and set aside until cooled to room temperature.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium-high speed until light yellow and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg yolk and vanilla and continue beating for 3 minutes. Turn the mixer to low, gradually add the confectioners' sugar, then beat at medium speed, scraping down the bowl as necessary, until smooth and creamy. Dissolve the coffee powder in 2 teaspoons of the hottest tap water. On low speed, add the chocolate and coffee to the butter mixture and mix until blended. Don't whip! Spread immediately on the cooled cake.
AUNT CAROL'S CHOCOLATE SHEET CAKE
This is my Aunt Carol's chocolate sheet cake recipe that I updated with chocolate ganache. We slice this cake up like brownies and bring to the family reunion every summer. I recommend serving this chilled. This cooks very fast so check it with a toothpick early, you don't want to over bake it.

Steps:
- Grease and flour a cookie sheet and preheat oven to 400ºF.
- In a small bowl, mix the eggs, baking soda and sour cream.
- In a mixing bowl, add the flour, sugar and salt, stir to combine.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, water and cocoa powder, heat and stir to combine.
- Add cocoa mixture to flour/sugar, blend with mixer. Add egg mixture and beat 1 minute. Stir in chocolate chips if desired. Put in cookie sheet and bake 14-20 minutes.
- When the cake is out of the oven, put the cream in a saucepan and heat to simmer.
- Add chocolate to the bowl of a food processor.
- Once the cream is heated, pour into food processor and let sit 4 minutes.
- Pulse a few times then process 5-10 seconds to smooth out the mixture.
- Transfer ganache to a non-plastic bowl. For a glaze style ganache, top cake now. For a lighter, fluffier "frosting", refrigerate 1-2 hours, whip in mixer, then top the cake. Top with walnuts, optional.
- Refrigerate the cake at least an hour before serving.
