CAKE: Cream the butter with the sugar until very light and fluffy. Add the eggs, beating well. Pour the water and liqueur over the chocolate in a sauce pan. Heat over medium heat to a thick syrup. Cool. Add to egg mixture. Sift the flour, soda, baking powder and salt together three times. Incorporate the flour and buttermilk into creamed mixture in thirds. Pour batter into two-9 inch /22cm greased and floured cake pans. Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 25-30 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before transferring cakes to cooling rack. Slice each cake lengthwise and fill with whipped whipping cream or your favourite buttercream or the Mocha filling. You will have 4 layers. Frost with Vandermint Coffee Frosting. FOR THE FILLING: Beat the butter with the confectioners' sugar until light and fluffy and stir in the cocoa and coffee. Divide filling evenly between the 4 layers. VANDERMINT COFFEE FROSTING: In a double boiler cook the cream, sugar, chocolate and the coffee, which has been dissolved in the hot water. Add the butter and cook for 6 minutes. Remove from heat. Beat until frosting reaches a spreadable consistency. International Family Favorites Ron Kalenuik.
