Bake at 350 degrees F for 12-15 minutes or until a wooden toothpick comes out clean

3 eggs
3/4 cups cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt

2 cups dark chocolate
1 cup heavy cream
Heat heavy cream and pour over your chocolate. Let it sit for a few minutes then stir until mixture is smooth.  Mixture will become thick after it has cooled and set.

Meringue buttercream
1 3/4 cups sugar
1/2 cups water
1 1/4 cup egg whites
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon vanilla
1 pound butter room temperature 
In a sauce pot, cook sugar and water until temperature reaches 240 degrees F
When sugar/water mixture gets close to 240 whip egg whites to stiff peaks. Pour sugar mixture into egg whites (carefully) and beat until the bowl is cool/ no longer hot to touch
(tip: to be sure place a bag of frozen anything against the bowl for a minute, if bowl does not get hot or warm back up in that spot mixture is cool)
Add butter little at a time
(mixture will become loose after adding butter but keep beating until it comes together again)
Add salt and vanilla.
