- Step 5:
- Divide batter evenly between prepared pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Step 6:
- Cool in pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
- Step 7:
- In a bowl, beat softened butter until creamy. Gradually add cocoa powder and powdered sugar, mixing well. Add heavy cream and vanilla extract, beating until smooth and fluffy.
- Step 8:
- Spread frosting between the cooled cake layers and over the top and sides. Garnish with additional crushed Oreos and Ferrero Rocher chocolates.
- 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.
- 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.
