Instructions

1 Line the bottom of a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper. Cut out strips
of parchment and line the sides as well. (When I didn't do this, my cake stuck a
little, although not badly.) Spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
2 Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy with an electric mixer on medium
speed. Add eggs, one at a time, and mix until incorporated. Add melted chocolate
and vanilla, mixing again until well combined. Add flour and salt and stir just
until combined. Stir in nuts, just until mixed in.
3 Pour batter into prepared cake pan. Bake at 375F for 25-30 minutes, being
careful not to overbake. A toothpick inserted into the center will have a few
moist crumbs stuck to it. Cool cake completely.
4 If you haven't used parchment, carefully run a knife along the edges to loosen
the cake. Carefully turn out cake onto a wire rack, then invert it onto your
cake plate.
5 Beat together 2 teaspoons butter with the sugar and cocoa powder, until butter
is completely incorporated. (I was impatient and ended up with flecks of butter
in my icing the first time. So I didn't use it.) Pour in 1 ½ tablespoons hot
water/coffee. Beat until fluffy. Add more, teaspoon by teaspoon, if necessary.
Pour onto cake and let set.
