Combine the starter, milk, and flour in a large mixing bowl. Cover and let rest at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours. It won't necessarily bubble, but it may have expanded a bit., Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9" x 13" pan., In a separate bowl, beat together the sugar, oil, vanilla, salt, baking soda, cocoa. and espresso powder. The mixture will be grainy., Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition., Gently combine the chocolate mixture with the starter-flour-milk mixture, stirring till smooth. This will be a gloppy process at first, but the batter will smooth out as you continue to beat gently., Pour the batter into the prepared pan., Bake the cake for 30 to 40 minutes, until it springs back when lightly pressed in the center, and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean., Remove the cake from the oven, and set it on a rack to cool while you make the icing. You're going to ice the cake right in the pan, so don't worry about turning it out., Sift the confectioners' sugar into a large mixing bowl, and set it aside., In a small saucepan set over medium heat, melt the butter and add the buttermilk or yogurt. Dissolve the espresso powder in the hot water, add to the pan, and bring the mixture just to a boil., Immediately pour the simmering liquid over the confectioners' sugar in the bowl, and beat until smooth., Pour the warm frosting over the cake. Yes. it's thin and pourable; don't worry, it'll set as it cools. If you wait too long and the frosting stiffens up, simply spread it over the cake rather than pouring it.  , Combine the chocolate chips, milk, and corn syrup in a microwave-safe cup. Microwave until the chips soften, then stir until smooth., Drizzle/drip the chocolate over the icing. You can do this while the icing is still warm, or wait until it's cooled.
