White baking bar w/cocoa shaved into curls (I use potatoe peeler for

shortening, beat w/electric mixer on med spd till light and fluffy.

liqueur mixture. Alternately add flour mixture and buttermilk to egg
mixture, beating on low to med spd after each addition till combined.
Spread the batter evenly in pans. Bake at 350~F for 20-25 mins or

pans on wire racks for 10 mins. Remove from pans and cool completely
on wire racks. To assemble, place one layer, bottom side up, on a
