INGREDIENTS
PREPARATION
1Preheat oven to 350F. Butter 3 (7- or 8-inch, 2-inch-deep) round cake pans and line
bottoms with rounds of wax or parchment paper. Butter paper and dust pans with flour, knocking
out excess.
2Whisk together water, cocoa, and espresso powder until smooth, then whisk in milk and
vanilla.
3Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt.
4Beat together butter and brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer at high
speed until fluffy, then add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add flour mixture
and cocoa mixture in batches, beginning and ending with flour and mixing at low speed until just
combined.
5Divide batter among pans (about 2 1/3 cups per pan), smoothing tops. Bake in middle of
oven until a tester comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes for 7-inch pans or 20 to 25 minutes for 8inch. Cool in pans on a rack 30 minutes, then invert onto racks, remove paper, and cool
completely.
6Bring cream to a simmer in a 3- to 4-quart saucepan and remove from heat. Whisk in
chocolate until smooth. Transfer ganache to a bowl and chill, covered, stirring occasionally, until
thickened but spreadable, about 4 hours. (If ganache becomes too thick, let stand at room
temperature until slightly softened.)
7Arrange 1 layer on a cake stand or plate and spread 2/3 cup ganache evenly over it. Top
with another cake layer and 2/3 cup ganache, spreading evenly, then third cake layer. (Chill
ganache if necessary to keep at a spreadable consistency.) Chill cake until ganache filling is firm,
about 1 hour. Keep remaining ganache at a spreadable consistency, chilling when necessary.
8Spread a thin layer of ganache over top and sides of cake to seal in crumbs, then chill 30
minutes. Spread remaining ganache evenly over top and sides of cake.

INGREDIENTS
1 cup buttermilk
2 tbsp. red food coloring
1 tbsp. distilled white vinegar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
FOR THE FROSTING:
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/3 cup flour
1 1/2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups unsalted butter, softened
2 tsp. vanilla extract
PREPARATION
1Make the cake: Heat oven to 350. Butter and flour two 8 cake pans, and set aside.
Whisk together flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt in a bowl; set aside. Whisk together
buttermilk, food coloring, vinegar, and vanilla in a bowl; set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer
fitted with a paddle, cream butter and sugar on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 3
minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. On low speed, alternately add
dry ingredients in 3 batches and wet ingredients in 2 batches. Increase speed to high and beat
until batter is smooth, about 5 seconds. Divide batter between prepared pans, and smooth top
with a rubber spatula; drop pans lightly on a counter to expel any large air bubbles. Bake cakes
until a toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Let cakes cool for 20
minutes in pans; invert onto wire racks, and let cool.
2Make the frosting and assemble cake: Whisk together sugar and flour in a 4-qt.
saucepan; add milk and whisk until smooth. Stirring often, bring to a boil over medium-high
heat; cook, stirring constantly, until very thick, about 5 minutes. Remove pudding from heat;
cool. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle, beat butter and 1/4 of the pudding on
medium-high speed until fluffy and smooth, about 1 minute. Add half the remaining pudding,
beating until smooth, and then add remaining pudding and vanilla. Increase speed to high and
beat frosting until white and fluffy, about 3 minutes. To assemble, place one cake on a cake
stand, and spread with 1 1/2 cups frosting. Place second cake over frosting; cover top and sides
with remaining frosting; chill to firm frosting. Serve at room temperature.

INGREDIENTS
PREPARATION
1Preheat the oven to 350F. Mix together all the ingredients for the crust and press the
dough into a fluted pie pan with a removable bottom. Use your fingers to spread the dough
evenly, and be sure to press it up the sides. Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes, until is is just
beginning to firm up.
2Toss the fruit with the lemon and sugar and set aside.
3To make the crisp topping, combine the flour, oats, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Work in
the butter, using your fingers, until you have a very dry dough that clumps together when you
press it.
4When the crust is done baking, spread the fruit evenly in it. Sprinkle the crisp topping
over everything, then return to the oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes more, just until the crust is
brown, the blueberries are slightly melted, and the topping is crisp. Cool slightly before serving
with vanilla ice cream.
