Ingredients:
For the cake batter:
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 cups flour
3/4 cup dark cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup butter milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 tsp vanilla
1 cup coffee, hot

For the Kit Kat buttercream:
2 cups butter
6 egg whites
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 tsp vanilla
2 cups Kit Kat, finely chopped (14 snack size Kit Kat packs)

For the chocolate ganache:
8 oz dark chocolate
4 oz heavy cream
INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1:
Start off with a large bowl. Combine the sugar, eggs, salt, and vanilla. Add oil and butter milk. Mix it until fluffy. Sift in flour, cocoa, baking powder and baking soda and mix until everything is thoroughly incorporated. Stir in the hot coffee; the batter will be very thin.
Step 2:
Divide the batter evenly among 2 8-inch cake pans. Bake for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of each layer comes out clean. Cool the layers in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut each layer one time horizontally.
Step 3:
For the buttercream whisk egg whites and sugar in a heatproof bowl and place it on a pot with simmering water (bain-marie). Whisk it continually until it forms soft peaks for 8 minutes.
Step 4:
Take out the water bath and keep whisking the meringue until stiff peaks form. Mix in the butter in small pieces. Keep mixing it until it comes together in a smooth buttercream. Add vanilla and Kit Kat pieces. Whip it until well incorporated.
Step 5:
To make the pipeable chocolate ganache heat up the heavy cream until it reaches a small simmer. Chop chocolate into small pieces and add them to a heat proof bowl. Add the hot cream and let sit for 3 minutes. Stir it until everything is well combined. If you happen to have lumps of chocolate, heat the ganache in the microwave in 10 seconds intervals until smooth. Make sure to stir it after each microwaving interval.
Step 6:
To decorate the cake, place the bottom layer on a plate and spread a thin layer of chocolate buttercream on top add some chopped Kit Kats. Top it with the second layer and repeat the step. Then apply the last layer and cover the cake with Kit Kat buttercream on the top and its sides.
Step 7:
Refrigerate the cake for about 40 minutes. Remove the cake from the refrigerator and apply a final layer of buttercream, as well as any decoration.

Enjoy!
