• Cream butter and sugar; add vanilla.
• Beat in eggs, one at a time, until well blended.
• Beat in chocolate.
• Add water alternatively with dry ingredients.
• Divide batter into cake pans, spread to level, then push batter up the sides a little bit leaving a slight concavity in the center.
• Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until cake just begins to pull away from the sides of the pan.
• Cool 5 minutes in the pan, then invert and cool completely on cooling racks.
• If necessary for even frosting, cut the tops level.
• Frost layers, staking them, and sides with your favorite frosting (I like coffee flavored Seafoam Frosting).
• With your spatula, quickly pull frosting up in peaks all over the cake.
