Instructions

To make the cake:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together to combine.
In a separate bowl, combine the cocoa powder, vegetable oil, buttermilk, vanilla, and eggs. Whisk together to combine.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Slowly add in the boiling water and mix until well combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pans and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

Add in the flour and salt and mix until just combined.
Turn the mixer off and fold in the mini chocolate chips.
