Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- Melt butter and unsweetened chocolate together in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, about 5 minutes.
- Combine flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder in a large bowl of an electric mixer. Add melted chocolate mixture, buttermilk, and eggs. Beat on low speed for 1 minute; increase speed to high and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Divide batter between the prepared cake pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cakes spring back when gently pressed, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in the pans for 5 minutes; invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, bring cream just to a boil in a saucepan. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips; mix until frosting is smooth and starts to thicken.
- Place 1 cooled cake layer on a cake plate. Spread with 1/3 cup frosting. Top with second layer. Frost the top and sides with remaining frosting.

Steps:
- CAKE: Preheat the oven to 350°F
- Butter two 8 inch round cake pans and line them with parchment paper; butter the paper. Dust the pans with flour, tapping out any excess.
- Mix the flour with the sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt at low speed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk with the oil, eggs and vanilla.
- Slowly beat the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients until just incorporated, then slowly beat in the hot coffee until fully incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pans.
- Bake for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of each cake comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 30 minutes, then invert the cakes onto a rack to cool completely.
- Peel off the parchment paper.
- FROSTING: In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the chocolate at high power in 30 second intervals, stirring, until most of the chocolate is melted.
- Stir until completely melted, then set aside to cool to room temperature.
- Beat the butter at medium speed until pale and fluffy.
- Add the egg yolk and vanilla and beat for 1 minute.
- At low speed, slowly beat in the confectioners' sugar, about 1 minute.
- In a small bowl, dissolve the instant coffee in 2 teaspoons of hot water.
- Slowly beat the coffee and the cooled chocolate into the butter mixture until just combined.
- Evenly spread 1/3 of the frosting over one cake layer to the edge.
- Top with the second cake layer, rounded side up.
- Spread the remaining frosting over the top and side of the cake.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE LAYER CAKE
This recipe came from Gourmet magazine, and was posted in reply to a message board request. Callebaut semisweet chocolate for the cake and Guittard French-vanilla chocolate for the frosting, but any fine-quality semisweet chocolate will produce a wonderful result in either. Use 2 10-inch x 2-inch round cake pans

Steps:
- Make cake layers: Preheat oven to 300°F and grease pans.

- Into a large bowl sift together sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

- Slowly add oil, buttermilk, vanilla, and melted chocolate mixture to eggs, beating until combined well.
- Add sugar mixture and beat on medium speed until just combined well.

- Remove pan from heat and add chocolate, whisking until chocolate is melted.
- Cut butter into pieces and add to frosting, whisking until smooth.
- Transfer frosting to a bowl and cool, stirring occasionally, until spreadable (depending on chocolate used, it may be necessary to chill frosting to spreadable consistency).
- Spread frosting between cake layers and over top and sides.
- Cake keeps, covered and chilled, 3 days.
- Bring cake to room temperature before serving.
