Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350F. Butter and flour 2 (9-inch) cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper. Wrap the pans with cake strips.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter on medium speed until creamy. Add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until well combined before adding the next.
Step 4
In a large liquid measuring cup, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk and vanilla.
Step 5
With the mixer on low, add one-third of the flour mixture. Alternate with half of the buttermilk mixture, and continue alternating with the remaining flour and milk mixture.
Step 6
Reserve 1½ cups (330g) of batter in a large bowl. Divide the remaining batter among the two cake pans.
Step 7
Melt the chocolate in the microwave in 20 second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Or melt in a double boiler. Add to the reserved cake batter along with the remaining ¼ cup buttermilk, and stir until fully combined.
Step 8
Dollop the chocolate batter over the plain batter in the pans. Using the tip of a knife, swirl both batters together.
Step 9
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 20 minutes. Remove and cool completely on a wire rack.
Step 10
In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed for about 2 minutes, until nice and creamy.
Step 11
Sift in the ¼ cup of cocoa powder. Add the salt and mix on low just until combined. Scrape the bowl down.
Step 12
With the mixer on low, beat in the confectioner’s sugar a few tablespoons at a time.
Step 13
Then, beat in the cream and vanilla. Turn speed up to medium and beat until the frosting is well combined and fluffy about 1 minute.
Step 14
Trim the tops of the cakes to create level layers if needed.
Step 15
Place one cake layer on a cake stand or plate. Spread about ½ cup frosting over the top. Place the other cake layer on top. Spread the remaining frosting all over the top and sides of the cake. Make swoops with a spoon or offset spatula, or decorate as desired. Chill for at least 1 hour or until ready to serve.
