Directions:  

1. Preheat the oven to 350. Butter two 8 inch round cake pans (make sure cake pans are at 
least 2 inches tall). Line with parchment paper, then butter and flour the pans.  
2. Sift the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt into the bowl of an 
electric mixer and mix on low speed until combined.  
3. In another bowl, combine the buttermilk, oil, eggs and vanilla. With the mixer on low 
speed, slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry. With the mixer still on low, add the 
coffee and stir just to combine, scraping the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula.  
4. Pour the batter into the prepared pans and bake for 35-40 minutes, until a cake tester 
comes out clean. Cool in the pans for 30 minutes, then turn them out onto a cooling rack 
and cool completely, removing parchment paper. 
5. Place one layer, flat side up, on a plate. With a knife or offset spatula, spread the top with 
frosting. Place the second layer on top, rounded side up, and spread the frosting evenly 
on the top and sides of the cake.

Best Crockpot BBQ Chicken 

Ingredients:  

● 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts 


● 1 cup BBQ sauce 
● 1/4 cup Zesty Italian dressing 
● 1/4 cup brown sugar 
● 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce 
● salt to taste 

Serves 6 // Prep: 5 minutes, Cook: 4 hours //Credit: Family Fresh Meals 

Directions:  

1. Season chicken breast lightly ( a small pinch per breast) with some sea salt and place in 
your crockpot. 
2. In a mixing bowl combine BBQ sauce, Italian dressing, brown sugar and Worcestershire 
sauce. Stir until well combined. 
3. Pour over chicken, cover and cook on HIGH for 3-4 hours 
4. Once time is up, you can serve the breast whole, or shred with 2 forks. If shredding, 
recover and let cook in sauce for about 10-15 more minutes to soak up all that delicious 
flavor. 

 
5. Serve on buns, over rice, in wraps, on a salad or eat a plateful as is! Our favorite way is 
on fresh rolls, topped with coleslaw.
