Whipped cream is lighter and can be made with fewer ingredients.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease and flour two round cake pans.

Mix flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.

In another bowl, beat eggs and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add melted butter and vanilla extract to the egg mixture and mix well.

Combine the dry ingredients with the wet mixture, alternating with buttermilk.

Stir in hot water until the batter is smooth.

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pans.

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Once cooled, frost the top of one cake layer, place the second layer on top, and frost the top and sides.

Decorate with chocolate shavings or powdered sugar as desired.
