and line the bottoms with circles of wax paper, then butter and flour
the paper. 2. In a medium bowl, pour the boiling water over the
chopped chocolate. Set aside for 5 minutes. Add the cocoa and stir
until the mixture is smooth. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
4. In a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream the butter and brown
sugar and add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each
addition. Beat in the vanilla. Add the flour mixture and half the
chocolate mixture. Beat on low speed to combine, and then on high for
1 1/2 minutes. Add the remaining chocolate mixture and beat on low
speed to combine. 5. Pour the batter into the prepared pans and bake
for 30-40 minutes or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes
out clean. Set the cake pans on a wire rack to cool for 20
minutes.Then invert the cakes onto the racks to cool completely. 6.

milk and beat until the frosting is smooth. 8. TO ASSEMBLE THE CAKE:
Top one layer with the ganache. Add the second layer of cake and
frost the sides, and then the top. Decoratively pipe frosting around
the base and top edges of the cake.
