    Ingredients
    • CAKE:
    • 2 1/2 cups flour
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • 6 ounces white chocolate
    • 1/2 cup hot water
    • 1 cup butter - softened
    • 1 1/2 cups sugar
    • 3 eggs
    • 1 cup buttermilk
    • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
    • FROSTING:
    • 6 ounces white chocolate
    • 2 1/2 tablespoons flour
    • 1 cup milk
    • 1 cup butter - softened
    • 1 cup sugar
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla
    Directions
    CAKE:
    • Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans and set aside. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
    • Sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together; set aside.
    • In a small saucepan, over low heat, melt the white chocolate together with the hot water; stir until smooth. Allow this mixture to cool to room temperature.
    • Cream the butter and the sugar together in a large mixing bowl until fluffy. Begin adding the eggs one at a time, beating well after adding each.
    • Stir in the flour mixture by hand, alternating back and forth with the buttermilk until all has been incorporated.
    • Mix in the melted white chocolate and vanilla.
    • Once the batter is well mixed, pour it into the prepared cake pans and bake for 30 minutes or just until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
    • Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pans. Place on a rack to cool completely before frosting.
    FROSTING:
    • In a saucepan, add the white chocolate, flour, and milk. Stirring constantly, cook over medium heat until very thick.
    • Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
    • In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter, sugar, and vanilla until fluffy. Slowly mix in the cooled white chocolate mixture.
    • Once chocolate mixture is mixed in, beat at high speed until the frosting is the consistency of whipped cream.
    • Frost the cake by adding a layer of frosting between the cake layers and then spread remaining frosting on the sides and top of the cake.
    • Garnish the cake with chocolate curls on top.
