i don’t have my own pics up yet, but here’s a pic from her site:
omg it is glorious – a million times better than my grandma whoever’s buttermilk chocolate cake. this is now my go-to cake recipe. it calls for coffee, but you can use boiling water. i used amaretto flavored coffee, and i think if you substituted some almond extract for some of the vanilla (it calls for a TABLESPOON of vanilla!!), that would bring out more of the almond flavor. i also put some coffee in the frosting, as well as some cream cheese, and not a ton of cocoa – so it looked a lot lighter than the pic.
