- 1 ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup buttermilk

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and line a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Add eggs, buttermilk, oil, and vanilla. Mix until combined.
- Slowly stir in hot coffee. The batter will be thin.

- For the frosting, beat butter until creamy. Mix in powdered sugar and cocoa powder.
- Add melted chocolate, heavy cream, vanilla, and salt. Beat until thick, smooth, and fluffy.
- Spread a generous layer of frosting over the cooled cake. Finish with chocolate shavings.
- Slice into thick squares and serve.
Tip: Chill the frosted cake for 20–30 minutes before slicing for those thick, clean layers.
