Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
-
In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
-
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk. Mix until just combined.
-
Stir in the hot brewed coffee, mixing until smooth and well combined.
-
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
For the brigadeiro filling and frosting: In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, butter, and cocoa powder over medium heat.
-
Cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens and pulls away from the sides of the pan, about 10-15 minutes.
-
Remove the brigadeiro from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.
-
Once the cakes and brigadeiro filling have cooled, place one cake layer on a serving plate.
-
Spread a generous layer of brigadeiro filling over the top of the cake layer.
-
Place the second cake layer on top and cover the entire cake with the remaining brigadeiro filling, spreading it evenly.
-
Decorate the cake with chocolate sprinkles for a beautiful and tasty finishing touch.
