Ingredients

2 tsp. butter, melted, divided
1-3/4 cups flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
2 pkg. (4 oz. each) BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate, broken into pieces
1 cup butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1-1/4 cups sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tsp. vanilla
2-3/4 cups BAKER'S 225th Anniversary Fudge Icing

Steps:

Heat oven to 325°F.
Brush half the melted butter onto bottoms and sides of 2 (9-inch) round pans. Cover bottoms with waxed paper; brush with remaining melted butter.
Sift flour, baking soda and salt; set aside. Microwave chocolate and cut-up butter in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2 min. or until butter is melted. Stir until chocolate is completely melted.
Beat sugar and eggs in medium bowl with mixer 2 min. or until slightly thickened and pale yellow in color. Add chocolate mixture; beat until well blended. Gradually add flour mixture, beating on low speed after each addition until well blended. Add buttermilk and vanilla; mix well. (If batter is not completely blended at this point, mix by hand with rubber spatula until mixture is well blended.) Pour into prepared pans.
Bake 30 to 34 min. or until toothpick inserted in centers comes out with fudgy crumbs. (Do not overbake.) Cool cakes in pans 5 min. Remove from pans to wire racks; remove and discard waxed paper. Cool cakes completely. Fill and frost with BAKER'S 225th Anniversary Fudge Icing. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
