- Step 6:

Serving and Storage Tips
- For a richer flavor, use dark cocoa powder in the cake and frosting.
- The cake can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- For an added touch, drizzle the cake with chocolate ganache before adding the final garnishes.
Helpful Notes
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can substitute it with a mixture of 1 cup milk and 1 tbsp vinegar or lemon juice. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- Make sure the cakes are completely cooled before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting.
