Preparation Steps
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans and bake for 30-35 minutes.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Prepare the frosting by beating butter and cocoa powder together, then gradually adding powdered sugar and milk until creamy.
Once cooled, frost the layers and top with chocolate ganache as desired.
Notes
For an extra touch, top with chocolate shavings or fresh berries before serving.
