Melt chocolate in a saucepan over a very low heat, stirring constantly
until smooth. Add 1/2 cup of the sugar and 1/2 cup of the buttermilk.
Stir until well blended. Cool thoroughly. Mik flour, baking powder, soda
and salt. Cream butter, and gradualy beat in the remaining 1 1/2 cups
sugar. Continue beating until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time,
beating thoroughly after each. Blend in about one-fourth of the flour
mixture, then add the chocolate vanilla. Alternately add the remaining
flour and buttermilk, beating after each addition until smooth.

I used a cream cheese frosting on the outside and filled the space
between the layers with the chocolate frosting recipe on the Hershey's
cocoa box.
