Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

In another bowl, beat eggs and sugar until fluffy. Add buttermilk, coffee, oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once cooled, frost the cake with your favorite frosting and decorate as desired.
