It's super moist, rich and chocolatey. I frost the cake with an amazing salted caramel buttercream made with homemade caramel sauce. This cake is extremely chocolaty, with billowy salted caramel buttercream, and very fudgy frosting-so for the truest of chocolate lovers, and very decadent. The day after I made this, I made a larger version to take with me to the cottage, but I decided to make a Chocolate Swiss Meringue Buttercream, and. Sticky, creamy, caramel with a hint of salt is probably one of the most delicious things.
