Instructions
Prepare Chocolate Cake:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add wet ingredients to dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in hot coffee. Pour batter evenly into prepared pans.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Make Caramel Filling:
- In a medium saucepan, combine sugar and water over medium heat. Cook without stirring, until sugar dissolves and turns amber.
- Carefully whisk in heavy cream, butter, and salt. Cook until smooth and slightly thickened.
- Let cool slightly.
Prepare Toffee Crunch:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a saucepan, combine butter, sugar, and water. Cook over medium heat until golden amber.
- Remove from heat and stir in baking soda and toffee bits.
- Pour onto prepared baking sheet and let cool completely. Break into small pieces.
Make Frosting:
- In a large bowl, beat butter until creamy.
- Gradually add powdered sugar and cocoa powder, mixing on low speed until combined.
- Beat in heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and creamy.
Assemble Cake:
- Level the tops of the cooled cakes.
- Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread half of the caramel filling over the cake.
- Sprinkle half of the toffee crunch over the caramel.
- Top with the second cake layer.
- Frost the entire cake with the chocolate frosting.
- Drizzle remaining caramel filling over the top and sprinkle with the remaining toffee crunch.
Serve: Slice and serve.
Notes
- For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark cocoa powder.
- You can use store-bought caramel sauce for the filling to save time.
- The toffee crunch can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container.
- For a more intense Toffee taste, add some toffee bits inside the frosting.
- Chill the cake before serving for a more firm frosting and filling.
- Garnish with chocolate shavings or more toffee bits for a beautiful presentation.
