- Cream the butter and sugar; add vanilla, and beat in the 4 egg yolks.
- Add the melted chocolate.
- Sift cake flour,baking powder, and baking soda together.
- Alternate adding the sifted mixture and the buttermilk to the creamed butter mix.
- Gently fold in the beaten egg whites.
- Grease 3 round cake pans or line about 3 dozen cupcake tins with paper liners.
- Bake the cakes for around 30 minutes or until just done (it will look a little undercooked, but will set up once cooled), or the cupcakes 15-20 minutes.
- Frost after the cake has cooled.
