Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400°; butter a round 9-inch round springform pan.
- In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and baking soda; stir to blend.
- In a medium (3-quart) nonstick saucepan, combine the water, butter, cocoa powder, and espresso; stir to blend.
- Cook over med-high heat, stirring constantly, until well blended and it just comes to a boil, about 2 minutes.
- Gradually stir in the dry ingredients until blended.
- Decrease heat to medium.
- In a small bowl, whisk the buttermilk, egg, and vanilla together; add to the batter and mix vigorously for about 1 minute, or until well blended.
- Remove from heat and pour into the prepared pan.
- Bake for about 15 minutes, or until the top just begins to crack and the center is still slightly moist when pierced with a skewer; remove from the oven.
- While the cake is baking, make the frosting-add the butter, cocoa powder, and buttermilk to the pan and bring to a boil over med-high heat, stirring constantly until blended.
- Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, and walnuts and mix to combine.
- Remove from heat.
- While the cake is still hot, pierce holes all over the top with a skewer and pour the frosting over.
- Keep piercing the cake after you have poured over the frosting to create a fudgy interior.
- Transfer the cake to a platter and release and remove the sides of the springform pan, allowing the frosting to drip down the sides of the cake.
- Let sit for at least 15 minutes or until the frosting is set.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
