Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
6 oz. white chocolate, for garnish.
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 cup plus 3 tbsp. granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup plus 3 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
4 large eggs
3/4 cup very hot water
1/2 pint heavy cream
10 1/2oz. semisweet chocolate
Directions:
Directions:
1. Finely grate white chocolate onto a plate using a vegetable peeler. Chill until needed. Preheat oven to 350ºF.

2. Grease the base of two 8-inch round cake pans; line with parchment paper. Combine butter, sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, salt and eggs in a large bowl. Using an electric mixer set on medium, beat until smooth. Continue beating until increased in volume, about 2 minutes longer. Add the hot water and beat to incorporate, about 1 minute longer. Divide batter between pans.

3. Bake cakes until a toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean, 20-25 minutes. Leave cakes in pans to cool for 10 minutes, then turn onto a wire rack. Peel off lining paper: let cool.

4. Meanwhile, heat heavy cream just to a boil. Break chocolate into pieces; add to cream and stir until melted. Let cool; chill for 30 minutes, then whisk until thickened to a spreadable consistency.

5. Use a third of chocolate frosting to sandwich cakes. Spread the remainder over the whole cake. Sprinkle reserved grated white chocolate to garnish.
