- Next add egg yolks, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, and then blend in melted chocolate and the vanilla. You’ll want to add flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk, beating until well blended after each addition.
- In a small bowl on high speed, beat egg whites with electric mixer until stiff peaks form, and stir into batter gently. Now please pour evenly into prepared pans.
- You can then bake until toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean, it takes around 30 minutes or 35 minutes. After that, run small metal spatula around cake layers.
- Once done, cool in pans for about 20 minutes, remove layers from the pans to wire racks. Immediately discard parchment paper, Cool cake layers completely.
- Finally, make sure to spread coconut-pecan frosting between cake layers and onto top of cake
